Potassium-titanyl-phosphate laser vaporization of the prostate: a case series of an unusual complication.

Abstract Despite its increasing use in the management of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia, the long-term complications after potassium-titanyl-phosphate photoselective vaporization of the prostate are poorly reported. We describe a rare complication of this technology-calculi formation in the prostatic urethra. All patients presented with visible hematuria and variable lower urinary tract symptoms up to 5 years after the original surgery.
