Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
To be taken from the surgical reports: 1. The total operative time is measured using the data from the cases. 2. The probability of at least one complication during the surgery. Complications include: 1.1. Capsule perforation. 1.2. Bladder wall injury. 1.3. Intraoperative bleeding requiring conversion to TURP or open simple prostatectomy or leading to a failed morcellation.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
1. Achievement of optimum outcomes in prostate enucleation will be measured using Pentafecta achievement (defined as a combination of complete enucleation and morcellation within <90 min without any conversion to standard TURP, no postoperative complications and no stress urinary incontinence) at 3 months 2. Three-month postoperative symptom score reduction will be measured using the IPSS questionnaire.	—
