Studies have shown enucleation procedures typically result in extremely low rates of retreatment and erectile dysfunction as well as high quality of life feedback even several years after the procedure.2

Enucleation is performed when the physician completely frees the benign tumor of the gland from the prostate capsule so that no capsular attachments remain. A separate instrument is then used to cut the prostate tissue into easily removable fragments.3

Enucleation can be performed effectively with Plasma Therapy or SOLTIVE SuperPulsed Laser Therapy.

Speak with your doctor to see if Enucleation is right for you.
