Comparative Outcomes of Rezūm Versus EchoLaser for Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia With Enlarged Median Lobe.

Résumé succinct

This study evaluates and compares two minimally invasive surgical therapies for treating men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who specifically have an enlarged median lobe. The two treatments being compared are Rezūm (water vapor thermal therapy) and EchoLaser (transperineal laser ablation). Participants will be randomized into two equal groups to receive either the Rezūm treatment or the EchoLaser treatment. The primary goal of the study is to evaluate the change in urinary symptoms over a 6-month period using the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS). The study will also assess how well each treatment improves urine flow, reduces the size of the prostate, preserves sexual function, and minimizes complications.
