urethral stricture/カリウム

OBJECTIVE We describes our experience using the potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP)-532 laser in treating posterior urethral valves, ureteroceles, and urethral strictures in the pediatric patient. METHODS A retrospective chart review was performed from 1987 to 1997 on a total of 33 pediatric patients

OBJECTIVE The 80-W potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) laser photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) is a minimally invasive surgical option for patients with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia, although evidence of long-term efficacy is limited. We present the long-term outcomes from

OBJECTIVE Potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) laser photoselective vaporization prostatectomy (PVP) is a relatively new technology for the management of lower urinary-tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We review our initial experience. METHODS We prospectively

OBJECTIVE We investigated 2-year follow-up outcomes of patients who underwent potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP)-photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) laser therapy for symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). METHODS Of a total of 169 patients who underwent 80 W KTP-PVP by a

OBJECTIVE We evaluated our initial experience with the GreenLight HPS laser, a technologically improved version of the potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) laser for PVP. METHODS Transurethral PVP was performed using a GreenLight HPS side-firing laser system. Patients had American Urological

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess the effect of various power settings of the potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) green laser on the vaporization of biological tissue under water and its potential and feasibility to treat patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and other urological

OBJECTIVE To compare the clinical outcome after hybrid laser treatment of the prostate, combining potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) and Nd:YAG lasers, with transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). METHODS A prospective randomized trial was conducted to compare laser treatment and TURP. The

Clinical studies were made of 60 patients who had undergone ureterosigmoidostomy at our department. The 45 men and 15 women ranged from 35 to 73 years old, with a mean of 59.2 years. Ureterosigmoidanastomosis was performed using the modified Coffey II technique in this series. Bladder tumor was the

The use of the potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) laser for the ablative treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) has gained wide acceptance in the urologic community. The efficacy and safety of photoselective vaporization of the prostate using 60-W or

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disease in aged men. In this study, we investigated the efficacy and safety of transurethral enucleation of prostate with button electrode plasmakinetic vaporization for the treatment of BPH. 60 patients diagnosed with BPH who were treated in our

OBJECTIVE To report lessons learned and predictors of long-term outcome after a randomized trial comparing 2 widely available lasers (2123 nm and 532 nm) in prostate ablation as treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia. METHODS Between March 2005 and April 2007, 109 patients with a

This study aims to compare long-term results of photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) with an 80-W potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser and monopolar transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) in terms of efficacy, durability, and safety in an adjusted patient population. This

OBJECTIVE To compare the outcomes of bipolar transurethral vaporization of the prostate (TUVP) with bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). METHODS In a prospective randomized trial, 88 patients with moderate to severe lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to benign prostatic
