One-year outcomes after water vapor thermal therapy for symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia in an unselected Italian multicenter cohort

Abstract

We confirmed the safety and efficacy of water vapor therapy for the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) on a large cohort of patients. Anterograde ejaculation was preserved in the majority of patients, with good subjective improvement. Further studies may rule out possible role of Rezum^® (Boston Scientific) in new patients' setting.
