摘要
The recent introduction of high-power 200-W diode laser vaporization of the prostate has resulted in new interest in minimally invasive surgery for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Although clinical reports are still limited, experimental ex vivo or in vivo models have demonstrated that this laser device offers improved ablative and hemostatic abilities. Some preliminary clinical results have proven that this laser technique can efficiently improve the symptoms of BPH. However, this still requires long-term evidence to support the use of this laser device. In this article, we review the latest experience with this laser technique and compare other laser systems in the treatment of BPH in recent years. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2010.
