Departments of Urology and Renal Transplantation, Yokohama City University Medical Center, Yokohama, Japan.
Since contact laser vaporization of the prostate (CVP) was approved by the Japanese insurance system in 2016, the use of a 980 nm diode laser system for CVP has become widespread for treating benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) patients. Our institute has been implementing CVP for BPH since 2018, treating a total of 93 patients, including 28 with a risk of hemorrhage. This study examines the safety and efficacy of CVP treatment for BPH patients with a hemorrhagic risk.

Nine months post-cesarean, she reported urine leakage via the vagina upon catheter removal, which intensified in an erect posture.
