We undertook a systematic review to assess the safety and efficacy of holmium laser prostatectomy compared to transurethral resection of the prostate. We searched literature databases through August 2002. Holmium laser studies, including holmium laser resection of the prostate (HoLRP)
To review the complications associated with 206 holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) procedures. HoLEP is a minimally invasive surgical treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia. A retrospective review was conducted of HoLEPs performed from April 1, 1999 to October
Journal of clinical laser medicine & surgery, 16(1), 21-27 (1998-09-05)
The authors review the current knowledge regarding the application of the Holmium: YAG laser for prostatectomy. Conventional surgical therapies for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are effective but associated with relatively high morbidity. Laser prostatectomy, using either Neodymium:YAG or potassium-titanyl-phosphate lasers
Mayo Clinic proceedings, 73(8), 792-797 (1998-08-14)
As alternatives to transurethral resection of the prostate for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, various types of laser prostatectomy-most notably, neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (YAG) and potassium titanyl phosphate laser procedures-have proved to be associated with considerably less morbidity (for example, bleeding, need

To review the physics related to the holmium laser, its laser-tissue interactions, and its application to the treatment of urological diseases. The holmium: YAG laser is a solid-state, pulsed laser that emits light at 2100 nm. It combines the qualities
