Prostatic urethral lift for BPE

The prostatic urethral lift is a minimally invasive treatment for BPE that helps open the urethra by gently moving prostate tissue out of the way. It is usually recommended for men with smaller prostates without a middle lobe.

This chapter provides general information about prostatic urethral lift to treat BPE. It is not a replacement for professional medical advice or treatment. Always consult your doctor or healthcare provider for guidance on your individual medical situation.
