Green Light PVP Surgery of Prostate in India

Thislasertreatment of the prostate is a new, minimally invasive surgical technique for treating Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), or enlargement of the prostate. Greenlight HPS utilizes a specially designed laser light source and fiber optic delivery system developed by Laserscope in concert with researchers from the Mayo Clinic and other institutions around the world. The PVP procedure combines the immediate symptom relief and the dramatic flow rate improvements of the current "gold standard" procedure (called TURP or Trans-Urethral Resection of the Prostate) with minimal side effects, fast operative and recovery times, and usually no need for a catheter after surgery.
No other BPH treatment option has been shown to clinically provide such dramatic and immediate symptom relief while concurrently providing significant uroflow results and minimal, if any, side-effects. The PVP technique is a fast, outpatient treatment that will satisfy both the subjective (symptom relief) and objective (uroflowometry results) outcomes of a successful BPH treatment. Other minimally invasive BPH treatment options (such as TUMT, microwave, TUNA, thermotherapy) require compromises to be made by the patient and/or the physician. With PVP, there are no compromises, patient's symptoms are drastically reduced and flow rates are significantly improved.
The PVP (Photoselective Vaporization of the Prostate) Procedure that uses the Green Light PV laser system offers a unique and simple solution to Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH) because it combines the effectiveness of TURP, the surgical "gold standard" with the safety, comfort and ease of a minimally invasive treatment.
The PVP Procedure uses a very high powered laser to immediately vaporize and precisely remove enlarged prostate tissue. PVP (Photo-Selective Vaporization of the Prostate) is performed with the KTP laser by Laserscope (Greenlight PVP). This laser treatment of the prostate is a new, minimally invasive surgical technique for treating Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), or enlargement of the prostate.

The PVP procedure is performed in an outpatient setting, typically a hospital or surgical center, with average operative times normally less than 60 minutes. The GreenLight PV surgical laser system, which is used to perform the KTP laser PVP treatment, delivers laser light pulses through a specially designed fiber optic delivery device that is inserted through a standard cystoscope. The light pulses are directed towards the prostate tissue. The laser quickly vaporizes and removes the prostatic obstruction without significant bleeding.
Once the procedure is completed, patients have immediate post-operative symptom relief and dramatic improvements in symptoms, urinary flow rates, and bladder emptying.
