Article Description

Patients on anticoagulation are at high risk for bleeding after electrocautery transurethral resection of the prostate or open prostatectomy and they are often denied surgery for symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia. Using photoselective vaporization of the prostate, patients at high risk may safely undergo surgery. We explored outcomes and complications after photoselective vaporization of the prostate in an anticoagulated, high risk cohort.
