Abstract

Two-μm thulium laser has become widely accepted because of the resultant excellent homeostasis and rapid vaporization in prostatectomy. It is necessary for us to increase the surgical efficiency because of increasing numbers of larger-sized, elderly and high-risk BPH patients. We have made efforts to achieve this goal through continued improvement of the 2-μm thulium laser equipment, innovative methods-tangerine technique, reasonable teaching mode and easily grasped learning curve. We prove it necessary and feasible to increase the efficiency of 2-μm thulium laser resection of the prostate.
