As the years go by, the prostate grows in all men, this is called prostate hyperplasia. The main symptoms come from the obstruction to the exit of urine from the bladder, and this involves: difficulty and delay in the onset of urination, decreased caliber and strength of the urinary stream, intermittent or prolonged urination, dribbling, getting up at night to urinate, among others.
It is a disease that cannot be prevented as it is related to testosterone production and aging. And it is very common, so much so that prostate enlargement is the second most frequent cause of surgery in men after the age of 65, behind only cataract surgery.
There are two treatment options: drug treatment and surgery. Surgery is the best treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia. The main mission of this prostate surgery is to eliminate the increase in tissue produced over the years and, therefore, to eliminate the obstruction to the outflow of urine from the bladder. Prostate surgery does not carry the significant risk of complications that traditional techniques do.
Prostate laser
The laser eliminates the enlarged prostate tissue and also produces a simultaneous photocoagulation of the blood vessels, practically avoiding bleeding, which is the great concern of urologists in this surgery. The green laser was a true revolution 15 years ago. But the new Cyber Tulio laser has significantly improved prostate treatment. It is a new generation of laser with substantial advantages: minimal hospital admission, minimal chance of bleeding, and virtual absence of incontinence and impotence.
