Keywords
benign prostatic hyperplasia, KTP laser, transurethral resection of prostate, urinary bladder neck obstruction
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to compared the efficacy of 80W KTP photoselective laser vaporization prostatectomy (PVP) and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) in reducing the volume of prostate and relieving the obstruction in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) on non-randomized controlled design.
Interventions
PVP using 80 W KTP laser with a Greenlight system (GreenLight PVTM, Laserscope®, San Jose, CA)
Standard transurethral resection of the prostate using electrocautery loop
