Rezum
(Minimally invasive treatment for Benign enlargement of the prostate)
The Rezūm procedure is an innovative, minimally invasive treatment designed for men suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), commonly known as an enlarged prostate. This procedure utilizes the natural energy stored in water vapor (steam) to target and shrink excess prostate tissue responsible for urinary symptoms.
Procedure Details
Technique:
- A small device is inserted into the urethra.
- Controlled bursts of steam are delivered directly into the prostate tissue.
- The steam penetrates the prostate cells, causing them to die off and eventually be absorbed by the body. This process reduces the size of the prostate and relieves pressure on the urethra.
Patient Outcomes
Many men experience significant improvement in urinary symptoms within a few weeks after the procedure, making Rezūm an effective and convenient alternative to traditional BPH treatments.
The Rezūm procedure offers a promising solution for men with BPH, providing symptom relief while minimizing risks and preserving sexual function. Its ease of use and quick recovery time make it a favorable option for those seeking relief from urinary symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate.
