摘要

Dear Editor, Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common genitourinary tract disease in elderly males) The two-micron laser combines the advantages of efficient resection and rapid vaporization,resulting in high-performance resection and excellent hemostasis in resection of the prostate adenoma,which makes it an effective and promising modality in BPH treatment.2 However,severe edema and necrosis of the remaining prostatic tissue after vaporesection of the prostatic adenoma may cause severe irritative and/or obstructive symptoms and may even result in the need for a second operation.
