Transurethral laser/Plasma vaporization of the prostate

TUVP (Transurethral Vaporization of the Prostate)

Minimally invasive laser surgery offers significant advantages, from treating common skin conditions to addressing urinary blockages. In urology, laser surgery is a valuable tool for treating conditions like benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), where an enlarged prostate obstructs the urethra.

Laser surgery provides faster procedures, quicker recovery times, and more immediate results compared to traditional methods.

What is Laser Therapy/Surgery?

Laser surgery uses a focused light beam to heat and treat specific areas of tissue. In urology, it is used to relieve severe urinary problems, particularly those caused by an enlarged prostate.

Laser Therapy in Urology

Laser surgery is effective for treating urinary blockages caused by enlarged prostates. The laser can:

Melt (Laser Ablation/Vaporization): The laser removes excess tissue by vaporizing it, immediately opening the channel and relieving the blockage.

Sear (Laser Enucleation): The laser sears the tissue, clearing the blockage over a few days as the tissue gradually shrinks.
Benefits of Laser Surgery
Laser surgery in urology provides several advantages over traditional methods:
- Faster procedures with minimal discomfort
- Minimal to no blood loss
- Shorter hospital stays
- Less time with catheters
- Immediate results and faster symptom relief
Laser surgery’s minimally invasive nature leads to fewer complications and quicker recovery times, making it an excellent treatment option for men with urinary issues caused by an enlarged prostate.
