Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is an age-related, nonmalignant
condition that may lead to bothersome lower urinary tract symptoms.
The standard treatment of BPH has been ordinary loop transurethral
prostatectomy, but new therapies have been developed as a combined
result of research, technological advances, and the cumulative
experience of urological surgeons. Among the most promising
therapeutic alternatives to ordinary loop resection are those that
deliver topical or interstitial heat to prostatic tissue.
Transurethral microwave thermotherapy, visual laser ablation with
the Nd: YAG laser, high-intensity focused ultrasound, and
transurethral electrovaporization are some of the techniques
described in this book. These innovative procedures, employed by
skilled urologists using state-of-the-art instruments, hold forth
the promise of improved quality of life for BPH patients and
represent significant advances in the field of urology
