Holmium laser surgery
April 19th 2007
The 100 Watt Holmium:YAG laser allows laser treatment of prostatic enlargement by enucleating the prostate. It is also used to treat urothelial cancer, ureteric & renal stones and urethral strictures.
Laser prostate surgery is short stay and may even be accomplished on a day-case basis. Its other main advantage is a reduction in complications (less bleeding & discomfort with an overall reduction in morbidity rates).
