NCT03653117 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 20

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Rationale: With age a large group of men experience lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostatic obstruction (BPO). Standard treatment is a transurethral resection of the prostate or laser vaporization. As these techniques enter the prostate via the urethra, are invasive and require general or spinal anaesthesia. Transperineal laser ablation (TPLA) is a minimal invasive procedure, that can be performed under local anaesthesia.

Objective: The primary objective of this study is to prove feasibility and safety of TPLA for LUTS due to BPO in healthy men.

Secondary objectives: The secondary objectives are to determine functional voiding, erectile outcomes and changes on imaging.
