Abstract

The optimal application of different laser and electrosurgery treatment modalities for benign prostatic hyperplasia in 280 patients was evaluated. Five procedures were offered using Nd:YAG laser light, including ultrasound-guided free beam, a free beam technique applying either a predetermined energy dose or a visually-guided energy dose, contact laser prostatectomy, and a hybrid method where free beam coagulation was followed by contact laser. Two procedures were offered by electrosurgery comprising of transurethral resection and electrovaporization. The clinical outcome was assessed pre-operatively and 6 months post-operatively by free flowmetry, post-void residual, and Schafer obstruction grade. The results after 6 months of observation are presented.
