Aquablation
(Minimally invasive treatment for Benign enlargement of the prostate)
Aquablation is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatment designed for men suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition characterized by the enlargement of the prostate gland, which obstructs the flow of urine.
Procedure Details
Water Jet Technology:
-
- The procedure utilizes a high-pressure jet of water, controlled by robotic precision, to remove excess prostate tissue without the need for incisions or heat.
- The water jet is guided by real-time ultrasound imaging, ensuring that only the obstructive tissue is removed while preserving surrounding structures, such as the sphincters and ejaculatory ducts.
Aquablation presents a particularly attractive option for men seeking effective relief from BPH symptoms, offering a lower risk of adverse effects compared to traditional treatments.
Advantages of Aquablation
Precision:
Aquablation effectively treats prostates of all sizes with high precision, making it suitable for men with larger or more complicated prostate anatomies.
Reduced Risks:
Unlike traditional surgical methods, which may carry a higher risk of side effects such as incontinence, sexual dysfunction, or bleeding, Aquablation’s water-based approach significantly reduces these risks.
Anesthesia and Recovery:
- The procedure is typically performed under general or spinal anesthesia and usually requires only a short hospital stay.
- Most patients experience rapid symptom relief and a quick return to normal activities.
