Prostate surgery for an enlarged prostate (TURP) in Yorkshire and the Humber: waiting times

Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is an operation to reduce the size of the prostate when it has grown too large and makes it hard to pee. A thin tube is passed up the urethra to remove part of the prostate, under general or spinal anaesthetic. It can help if you need to pee often, take a long time to pee or leak urine.

Hospital-level numbers for this operation are not published as open data. This page shows NHS waiting times for urology and waits for cystoscopy (a camera test of the bladder).

Across England

In 2025-26, NHS-funded care in England (NHS hospitals and NHS patients treated by independent providers; private patients are not included) recorded 25,287 episodes where the main procedure was endoscopic resection of the outlet of the male bladder, including TURP (OPCS-4 M65). 24% were day cases. Half of the people admitted from a waiting list had waited less than about 111 days from the decision to admit them. These are national figures from Hospital Episode Statistics (NHS England, 2025-26, Open Government Licence v3.0); the same detail is not published for each hospital.

How to read this

  • Not a ranking. The table is in alphabetical order. A higher volume does not on its own mean better care, and we do not combine the columns into a score.
  • Risk adjustment. Where a figure says “adjusted”, the audit has allowed for differences in the patients each hospital treats, such as age and other illnesses. Hospitals that take on more complex cases can still look different for reasons the adjustment does not capture.
  • Bands and limits. We only say a result is higher or lower than expected when the source itself says so (for example NJR outlier status, NELA funnel limits, SSNAP levels, CQC survey bands). Where the source publishes a rate without limits we show the rate and the national figure, and say “No banding published”.
  • Small numbers. A small hospital can have 0% or a high percentage by chance. Figures the source suppresses are shown as “Not published (small numbers)”.
  • Trust or hospital. This audit publishes figures for each NHS trust, which may run several hospitals. The operation may only be done at one of them.
  • Different periods. Each figure has its own period, shown next to it. Audit results describe operations done one to three years ago; waiting times are updated monthly.
  • Talk to your GP or consultant about what the figures mean for you. If you are referred for planned care in England, you can usually choose your hospital.
