Enlarged Prostate Treatment Options

“Health is wealth” is a saying that rings true with a lot of people.  However, some people find themselves facing conditions that they would rather not have to deal with.  One condition that affects over 50% of men over the age of 60 is benign prostatic hyperplasia, of BPH.  And just like any other condition, BPH treatment is available.  Treatment options range from non-invasive methods such as medication and out patient Cooled ThermoTherapy to surgery.  If you find that your health is not as you would like it to be, talk with your doctor and make the changes necessary to restore yourself.

Cooled ThermoTherapyTM is available by prescription only.  This therapy is not for everyone.  Talk to your physician to see if Cooled ThermoTherapy is right for you. Most medical procedures may have side effects. Possible side effects for Cooled ThermoTherapy include blood in urine, clots in urine, painful or difficult urination, thickened bladder muscle, rectal irritation, temporary inability to control urination, brief inability to achieve or maintain swelling of the male organ and the inability to discharge semen at climax, thus should be considered by men who wish to have further offspring. A small risk of urethral stricture may result requiring further intervention. Patients may experience discomfort during the procedure that may require the use of analgesics or sedatives. Patients may be catheterized for a 2 to 5 day period following the treatment.1  For more complete information about the benefits and risks associated with Cooled ThermoTherapy please refer to the Instructions for Use found on our website at www.cooledthermotherapy.com or call us at 1.800.475.1403.

He also has some crystals in his urine. He went on anti-biotics and ant-infamatory med today. How can I help him. I live in Panama and the vet said no surgery is available. Again he is neutered. The vet said his prostate should be the size of a grape and it is the size of a plum. He weighs 15 lbs.

See if the meds help. If not you may have to end his suffering for him, humanly.

Prostatic adenoma is cancer, plain and simple. Benign hyperplasia is simply enlargement of the prostate gland. The latter occurs to most men, if they live long enough. It becomes an issue only if it enlarges to the point that urination becomes difficult.

A Urologist has confirmed my enlarged prostate and suggests laser treatment, but I would prefer Alternative medicine such as Ayurveda or homeopathy. I am confused there are so many advertisements such as AVMAZON, AYURSTATE, NATURALYPURE, HEALTHLINE, etc.all claiming remarkable results from their products. Kindly advise if any one has successfully used any such product to cure this problem. Many thanks.

The Laser Urology Centre Arezzo Italy http://www.urologialaser.it/index_en.html
was born thanks to the experience of Doctor Stefano Mattioli, who was the italian urologist who first introduced the use of laser in urologic surgery rooms ever since 1984. Doctor Alessandro Picinotti is another promoter of the centre and the one who means to continue such procedures through divulgation and spreading of information about the use of laser in urology.
Doctor Ugo Doria and Doctor Monica Sbragi are part of the equipe as well, both of them own experience in surgery and in medical clinic. The medical staff at the centre can offer qualified information as to the most modern tecniques concerning the use of laser in urologic surgery rooms, since the medicians operate in more than one health care facility and have been gaining, over the years, knowledge and practice of the lasers on the market at present: Tullio Laser, KTP Laser and Holmium Laser.
Since 2000 the use of Holmium-Yag Laser spreads over, it can be considered the initiator of a modern era because it is still employed in urologic surgery rooms and it was the beginning of the collaboration of Doc. Mattioli and Doc. Picinotti.
In July 2002, Doc. Mattioli shows for the first time another innovative laser, especially for the treatment of prostatic hypertrophy: it was KTP Green-Light Niagara (Corriere Salute 22/10/2002) and, learning the tecnique from his Master, Doc. Picinotti uses it for the second time ever in Italy and today it is still used in some centres in Italy, including ours. The introduction of Thulium Laser, in 2004, was another foundamental stage. Once again employed for the first time in Italy by Doc. Mattioli, it combines in one instrument the features of the two previous models, with greater precision and even less side effects (which were, in any way, very scanty).

In December 2006, the friendship and professional relation which link Doc. Mattioli and Doc. Picinotti, bring to the birth of the Laser Urology Centre.

“The HoLEP has replaced standard TURP completely and unreservedly in our hospital. There is nothing out there that has been shown to be better.”

Peter Gilling, MD, Consulting Urologist at Tauranga Hospital, Tauranga, New Zealand and holmium laser prostatectomy pioneer

“Use of the Ho:YAG laser for treatment of BPH is an important new technique that offers significant advantages over TURP….In a phrase, HoLEP compared with TURP provides ‘maximal benefit with minimal morbidity’….I would envision that every significant urology department will have a holmium laser at their disposal.

The scope of Prostrate surgery through the urethra in India is very good because of the availability of great treatment facilities and best experienced surgeons in Indias leading hospitals and medical institutes. The availability of medicines and drugs of higher quality makes India the most sought after health destination. During the treatment of Prostrate surgery, a multi disciplinary approach to care is employed that ensures the delivery of quality patient outcomes. The staffing levels of our hospitals are set in such a way that it completely ensures prompt compassionate care for every medical or surgical patient. Prostrate surgery through the urethra is a type of transurethral surgery that does not involve an external incision. The surgeon reaches the prostate by inserting an instrument through the urethra (the tube that carries urine from the bladder and out through the penis) to remove the section of the prostate that is blocking urine flow. The instrument is called as endoscope which has a camera attached to its tip which is then attached to a monitor. The surgeon looks into the monitor that shows the enlarged prostate and then cuts out and removes the enlarged prostate using specially adapted surgical instruments. Following the surgery, a catheter is used to remove blood or blood clots in the bladder that may result from the procedure. When the urine is free of significant bleeding or blood clots, the catheter is removed and the patient can go home. The success rate of Prostrate surgery through the urethra in India is more because of the high standard clinics, hospitals that are run by well trained and educated staff. Many countries have developed links for speedy treatments in India for their citizens on account of the fact that in these countries one has to wait for extended periods of time to undergo operations.
