BPH treatment with REZUM - Steam thermotherapy
An innovative, minimally invasive alternative to conventional surgery
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) can cause significant urinary discomfort: weak urine stream, frequent urination, nocturnal micturition, even retention.
REZUM is a revolutionary technique that uses the natural energy of steam to reduce prostate volume and restore lasting urinary comfort, without major surgery.
The benefits of steam treatment (REZUM)
A fast, effective method that respects sexual function, particularly suited to men wishing to avoid the side effects of medication or surgical resection.
✔ Reduction of prostate volume without incision
✔ Preservation of ejaculation and erectile function in the majority of cases
✔ Performed on an outpatient basis: same-day discharge
✔ Rapid return to daily activities
✔ Low risk of complications or bleeding
✔ Treatment compatible with certain anticoagulant treatments.
How it works
How does a REZUM procedure work?
1️⃣ Initial evaluation (symptoms, urodynamic assessment, ultrasound) Local anesthesia or short sedation Introduction of a fine needle via a cystoscope to inject steam into the prostatic lobes Placement of a temporary urinary catheter (3 to 5 days) Return home the same day - effect expected after 2 to 6 weeks
