Greenlight Photoselective Vaporization of the Prostate
Harley Street, London
GreenLight photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) (laser prostatectomy) is an advanced procedure designed to address the symptoms of an enlarged prostate, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). This minimally invasive technique utilizes a high-powered laser to precisely remove excess prostate tissue, offering several significant benefits for patients.
Compared to traditional surgery, GreenLight Laser Prostatectomy results in shorter hospital stays, often allowing patients to return home the same day or within 24 hours. The recovery time is also quicker, with many patients able to resume normal activities within a few days. Additionally, this procedure boasts lower risks of complications such as bleeding, making it a safer option for many individuals. Importantly, patients typically experience substantial improvement in urinary symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, weak stream, and incomplete bladder emptying.
