The UroLift System for treating an enlarged prostate

/in , /by

The UroLift® System treatment is a minimally invasive approach to treating an enlarged prostate, or BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia), that lifts or holds the enlarged prostate tissue out of the way so it no longer blocks the urethra. There is no cutting, heating or removal of prostate tissue.

The UroLift System is an alternative for patients looking for something other than drug therapy or more invasive surgery.

The UroLift system was the answer to his problem. Brought to the UK by South West Andology Consultant, Raj Persad, this new treatment means that surgery for this condition is now much less invasive. A treasury tag style clip lifts or holds the enlarged prostate tissue out of the way so it no longer blocks the urethra. There is no cutting, heating or removal of prostate tissue.
