Laser Prostatectomy Procedure

  • Preparing for the Procedure Before the laser prostatectomy procedure, the patient will typically receive either general or spinal anesthesia to prevent pain and discomfort during the procedure. The surgeon will also clean the surgical site and may place a catheter into the patient’s bladder to drain urine during the procedure.
  • Accessing the Prostate The surgeon will insert a cystoscope, a thin tube with a camera and light at the end, into the patient’s urethra to gain access to the prostate gland. The surgeon will use the cystoscope to view the prostate and determine the location of the excess tissue that needs to be removed.
  • Applying Laser Energy The surgeon will then use a laser to deliver high-energy pulses to the excess tissue in the prostate gland. The laser energy will be absorbed by the excess tissue, causing it to vaporize and be removed. The laser energy can be delivered through a variety of methods, including a laser fiber inserted through the cystoscope or a laser wand that is inserted through a small incision in the patient’s abdomen.
  • Removing the Tissue As the excess tissue is vaporized by the laser, it will be removed from the body through the cystoscope or a separate suction device. The surgeon will continue to apply laser energy until all excess tissue has been removed and the normal size of the prostate gland has been restored.
  • Closing the Incision Once the excess tissue has been removed, the surgeon will remove the cystoscope and close the incision. A catheter may be placed in the patient’s bladder to help drain urine during the initial healing period.
  • Recovery After the procedure, the patient will be monitored in the hospital for a few days to ensure proper healing and to manage pain. The catheter will typically remain in place for several days after the procedure, and the patient will need to avoid strenuous activity and sexual intercourse for several weeks while the area heals. Follow-up appointments with the surgeon will be necessary to monitor the patient’s progress and to remove the catheter when appropriate.
