Rezūm water vapor thermal therapy in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia: Initial real-world data from Japan.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is prevalent in older men. As surgery can be high risk in this group, minimally invasive procedures are preferrable. This study aimed to assess the initial results of minimally invasive Rezūm water vapor thermal therapy (WVTT) in patients with BPH.

Initial experience with prostatic urethral lift versus enucleation of the prostate: a retrospective comparative study.

Background: This study aimed to assess initial results and patient characteristics of prostatic urethral lift (PUL) compared with those of bipolar transurethral enucleation of the prostate (TUEB) in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in older patients.

Methods: This retrospective study was conducted at a single institution and involved 25 consecutive patients with BPH who underwent PUL between April 2022 and May 2023. Patient characteristics, operative details, and pre- and postoperative symptom scores were evaluated.
