Summary

GreenLight laser PVP currently gains wide acceptance as a minimally invasive treatment for benign prostate enlargment and the emergence of ejaculatory sparing techniques made it feasible to get both benefits: relief of lower urinary tract symptoms and preservation of ejaculation. However evaluation of actual infravesical de-obstruction following such techniques remains a grey zone in the literature without an objective assessment of the degree of de-obstruction. Furthermore, the impact of maintaining ejaculation on different domains of the sexual function using comprehensive assessment tools was not compared in ejaculatory sparring vs. non-ejaculatory sparring approaches.
