Abstract
(1) In photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), laser energy is used to vaporize prostatic tissue rapidly and bloodlessly. (2) Studies suggest that PVP performs well in the short term. (3) Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and longterm follow-up are required to determine PVP's place in the management of BPH.
