HoLEP: Holmium Enucleation of the Prostate with Mechanical Morcellation for BPH

HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate)

Lumenis has partnered with key luminaries to provide world-class training centers for urologists to learn this breakthrough technique firsthand from the experts. Live surgical demonstrations feature both the high-power VersaPulse PowerSuite Holmium laser and the VersaCut tissue morcellator, giving surgeons a clinical edge with this remarkable technology for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Here's what the experts have to say about holmium laser treatment for BPH:

"The HoLEP has replaced standard TURP completely and unreservedly in our hospital. There is nothing out there that has been shown to be better."

Peter Gilling, MD, Consulting Urologist at Tauranga Hospital, Tauranga, New Zealand and holmium laser prostatectomy pioneer

"Use of the Ho:YAG laser for treatment of BPH is an important new technique that offers significant advantages over TURP....In a phrase, HoLEP compared with TURP provides 'maximal benefit with minimal morbidity'....I would envision that every significant urology department will have a holmium laser at their disposal. It is a basic tool for stones and BPH, two of the most common conditions urologists treat."
