[Combined treatment of patients with erectile dysfunction and urination disorders].

The article presents the results of the study aimed to the evaluation the efficacy of combination therapy with alpha1-blocker (tamsulosin) and phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor (sildenafil) in patients with urination disorders and erectile dysfunction (ED). A pilot observational study involving 60 men aged from 50 and 80 years divided into 3 groups of 20 people was performed. Group 1 of patients received sildenafil 25 mg daily (dynamico), Group 2--tamsulosin 0.

[Long-term results of prostatic photoselective vaporization in the treatment of prostatic adenoma].

Assessment of long-term efficacy and complications of prostatic photoselective vaporization (Green Light PV (tm) device, Laserscope, 80W; laser cystoscope, Olympus) was performed in 40 patients with prostatic adenoma (PA) treated in 2005-2006. Mean follow-up was 30.6 +/- 16.

[Transurethral photoselective laser vaporization in the treatment of prostatic adenoma].

Progress in laser technologies allowed development of a highly effective method of laser adenomectomy--photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PSVP). The method employs highly potent potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) laser. PSVP with KTP laser (80 W) [GreenLight PV (tm), Laserscope] was made in 40 patients.
