FLEXIBLE CYSTOSCOPY

Prostate laser surgery is used to relieve moderate to severe urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate.

During prostate laser surgery, your doctor inserts a scope through the tip of your penis into the tube that carries urine from your bladder (urethra). The urethra is surrounded by the prostate. A laser is passed through the scope. The laser delivers energy that is used to shrink or to remove the excess tissue that is blocking the urethra and preventing urine flow.
