In a path breaking solution to all prostate gland related urological problems, Sagar Hospitals brings to Bangalore the world’s most advanced, breakthrough, out-patient Laser procedure for the treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate experienced by most men after the age of fifty.
GreenLight PVP™, or Photoselective Vaporization of the Prostate, is unlike any other enlarged prostate treatment, since it combines the effectiveness of an invasive surgical procedure with the safety and ease of a minimally invasive treatment. The GreenLight PVP Laser Procedure has been proven safe, effective and durable in clinical studies conducted over a five-year period at many leading medical institutions across the world.
Announcing the launch of the new technology, Dr. Hemachandra Sagar, Chairman, Sagar Hospitals Bangalore said, “We are extremely delighted to bring the world’s best and latest technology for the treatment of prostate related problems in India. The Institute will not only provide succor to the people suffering from prostate disease, but is the most modern centre offering complete urological solutions.” Choosing a BPH treatment involves careful consideration to determine if the treatment is safe, effective in relieving symptoms and restoring urine flow, long-lasting and easy to tolerate. The most commonly available treatments all require the patient to make significant compromises in these areas. Drug therapy provides some symptom relief but requires a daily commitment to medication, is costly and likely to fail over time. Conventional surgery in the form of Transurethral Resection of Prostate (TURP) of Holmium enucleation prostate (HOLEP) have proven to be effective treatment for BPH, but are associated with higher risks and complications, such as impotence, incontinence and the need for blood transfusions, as well as a prolonged catheterization and a 4-6 week recovery period. In contrast, most minimally invasive heat treatments offer reduced risks and also reduced efficacy and delayed symptom relief for several weeks following treatment. With the GreenLight PVP Laser Procedure, BPH patients no longer need to compromise the effectiveness or the safety of treatment. The GreenLight PVP Laser Procedure is a true treatment solution, not just a step in the management of BPH.Dr. Dilip Dhanpal, Senior Urologist, Sagar Hospitals said, “Urology has always been the most techno-intensive medical discipline. The GreenLight PVP Laser Procedure is the latest technological innovation in the treatment of prostate gland enlargements. As a practicing specialist trained on this new technique, I find it to be a quick and bloodless operation as compared to the existing option of TURP (Transurethral Resection Prostate) or the Holmium Laser Enucleation Prostate (HOLEP) and an efficient, cost effective, complication free procedure beneficial to the patient. It is an ideal procedure for high risk patients such as cardiac patients and patients on anticoagulants.” Prostate is an integral part of the reproductive system for men, providing the fluid necessary to transport sperm during ejaculation. However, as men age, the prostate gland can be a source of problem, consequent to an increases in size. Prostate enlargement is a condition that causes urinary problems in nearly half of all men over the age of 50, and that percentage increases with age. By the age of 80, nearly 80% of all men suffer from BPH symptoms. Although BPH is the most common health problem for men in this age group, there is a lack of awareness and understanding about the condition, symptoms, treatment solutions and overall health risks with delayed treatment.
Dr. Mahmood A. Hai, MD, Oakwood Annapolis Hospital, USA, said, “BPH can have devastating effects on the quality of one’s life, ranging from disturbed sleep, to avoiding going out in public places, for fear of inability to hold urine. While BPH may be as common as getting gray hair, or needing reading glasses, men can now choose to do something about it. The GreenLight PVP™ Laser Procedure offers patients a surgery that is safe, totally effective, with lasting relief in symptoms. My patients have reported that they have a whole new lease on life, and can once again enjoy things many of us take for granted; such as going out to eat, or to the movies, or playing golf.” “Unlike other BPH treatments, the GreenLight PVP™ Laser Procedure offers immediate relief in symptoms with minimal pain and results that are better than traditional TURP or HOLEP surgery,” said Dr. Hai.
With the breakthrough GreenLight PVP Laser Procedure at Sagar Hospital, Bangalore men suffering from enlarged prostate in their 50s and above, will witness unparalleled clinical endpoints, immediate and dramatic relief of symptoms, no catheterization in many cases, very short outpatient procedure and short convalescence.
In addition, Sagar Hospitals also offers comprehensive treatment solutions in Urology for stone disease, urinary incontinence, male infertility and erectile dysfunction and urological cancer using state of the art equipment.
