Photoselective vaporization of the prostate with the potassium‐titanyl‐phosphate laser in men with prostates of >100 mL

To assess the efficacy of photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) in men with prostates of >100 mL and causing bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), using the high‐power 80 W potassium‐titanyl‐phosphate laser (GreenLight PV®, Laserscope, San Jose, CA, USA), which offers rapid tissue ablation with minimal bleeding.
