Abstract

Improvements in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), which is the most common cause of lower urinary tract symptoms in aging males, are proceeding progressively. The prostatic urethral lift procedure offers a novel treatment option for men with lower urinary tract obstructive symptoms due to BPH. The prostatic urethral lift can be performed under general, regional and local anesthesia. The procedure shows its effect by retracting the obstructing lobes of the prostate through the capsule to provide a sufficient prostatic urethral opening. It is important to offer an alternative option to the patients who feel anxiety about sexual function loss and complications of the procedure. However, short follow-up period, necessity of suitable conditions, such as lack of median lobe or unremarkable post-voiding residual urine, and lack of cost-effectiveness analysis of the procedure are the limitations of this method. In this review, symptomatic, functional, and sexual outcomes following the prostatic urethral lift procedure were assessed
