This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, patients who complained of prostatism had only a few treatment choices. The patient was either a candidate for an elective prostatectomy, or the operation was deferred until the patient became more symptomatic. The present text summarizes the multiple options which have become available to the practicing urologist. Minimally invasive techniques such as transurethral incision of the prostate, balloon dilatation, hyperthermia, laser therapy, and prostatic stents are described. Medical treatment with alpha-blockers, 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors, and flutamide are addressed by authors who have had extensive clinical experience with the use of these agents.
Download or read book Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia written by K. Koshiba and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia written by Gerhard Jakse and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intense discussion has recently begun regarding current standards in the diagnosis and treatment of benign prosta tic hyperplasia (BPH). A number of factors have led to this discussion. In an increasing proportion of aging men, for example, BPH causes so-called obstructive symptoms that must be relieved by medical or operative means. This entails an immense social and economic impact in terms of health costs. In addition, recent data indicate the most frequently performed operation for BPH - transurethral resection of the prostate - is associated with a higher risk of death due to cardiac disease than open prostatectomy. Furthermore, studies using the recently developed technique of uro dynamics to assess bladder outflow obstruction reveal that about 20% -30% of patients treated with transurethral resection or open prostatectomy are actually not obstructed. This means that these patients do not receive the most effective therapy. Finally, various new treatment been developed, including medical treat modalities have ment directed at endocrine pathways in the prostatic cells, balloon dilatation, spirals, temporary or permanent stents, C). nd the application of heat in hyperthermia or thermo therapy. The contributions to this volume were selected from a symposium on the diagnosis and treatment of BPH. They are intended to provide a comprehensive review of the state of the art in treating BPH.

Download or read book GreenLight Laser for the Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy written by Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benign prostatic hyperplasia, also called benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), is an increase in the size of the prostate gland due to the proliferation of cells. The enlarged prostate gland puts pressure on the bladder and causes narrowing of the lower urinary tract. Signs and symptoms may include frequent or painful urination, incontinence, stream hesitancy, straining to void, dribbling and an increased risk of urinary tract infection. Treatment of BPH includes watchful waiting, medications (alpha1-adrenergic receptor antagonists, 5 alpha -reductase inhibitors), minimally invasive treatments (transurethral microwave therapy, transurethral needle ablation), surgery (transurethral resection of the prostate [TURP], open prostatectomy), and laser treatment. Laser prostatectomy was developed as an alternative to TURP. Initially, various devices were developed but these were underpowered and effectiveness was uncertain. More powerful lasers were later introduced including a technique that consists of photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) using the GreenLight laser. Compared with TURP, laser vaporization had a potentially lower risk of bleeding, erectile dysfunction, retrograde ejaculation, and shorter hospital stay. However, it is unclear about the clinical effectiveness and cost effectiveness of GreenLight laser method due to high technical learning curve and lack of experts in the field. The aim of this report is to review the evidence for clinical effectiveness, safety and cost-effectiveness of photoselective vaporization of the prostate with GreenLight laser for the treatment of benign prostatic hypertrophy.
