Summary

Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a novel ablation modality using electric pulses to create nanoscale defects in the cell membrane. It has been verified to be safe on the treatment of prostate, lung, liver and kidney masses. The present is a randomized, controlled trial, with a main purpose of looking into the safety and feasibility of irreversible electroporation for patients with benign prostatic obstruction.
