title: [Pilot experience in application of a laser device urobeam in the treatment of patients with prostatic adenoma in Kazakhstan].
abstract: The study included 54 patients with prostatic adenoma exposed to laser photoselective vaporization using Urobeam device. Before vaporization the patients had marked infravesical obstruction, Qmax - under 5 ml/c, PVR > 200 ml, IPSS > 20 points, size of the prostate by transrectal ultrasound investigation - over 80 cm3. Moreover, 63% patients received anticoagulants. The results of the study show that Urobeam vaporization improves such parameters as IPSS score, Qmax, prostatic size in minimal number of complications. Thus, Urobeam laser photoselective vaporization is an effective treatment of prostatic adenoma, it provides fast upgrading of quality of life of prostatic adenoma patients.
