daVinci Robotic Prostatecomy
The daVinci Robotic Prostatectomy represents the next revolution in surgery for prostate cancer. Powered by state-of-the-art robotic technology, it allows the surgeon to remove the prostate using small incisions instead of the traditional large incision. For the patient, this typically means less blood loss, shorter hospital stay, less pain, and a quicker return to normal activities after the procedure.
Greenlight Laser Treatment
Photoselective Vaporization of the Prostate (PVP) using the GreenLight laser is a revolutionary technique for treating enlarged prostate. The GreenLight laser system uses a high power KTP, or "green" light source. It enables the surgeon to vaporize the obstructing prostate tissue in a nearly bloodless fashion.
The GreenLight Laser system uses pulsing technology called Star Pulse %u2122 to create high energy pulses of 532 nanometer ("green") light. The green light is absorbed into the prostate tissue, resulting in quick vaporization of the prostate tissue. Thus, the surgeon is able to completely remove all of the obstructive tissue in a near-bloodless field.
