Outpatient Holmium LASER Enucleation of the Prostate: Benefit of MOSES(TM) 2.0 Technology

The aim of this study is to compare the success rate of outpatient surgery after holmium LASER enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) for the treatment of BPH with and without the use of the MOSES 2.0 effect.

Key information

About this study

HoLEP is in the process of becoming the new reference surgical treatment for BPH with the main advantages over monopolar transurethral resection (TURPm) and high approach adenomectomy (AVH): the significant reduction in morbidity perioperative period and therefore the reduction in the length of hospital stay. This reduction in length of stay has led to the development of outpatient care with encouraging results. The main cause of discharge failure on D0 is the persistence of postoperative hematuria requiring maintenance of bladder irrigation. MOSESTM 2.0 technology has the advantage of better hemostasis compared to the LASER LP100 currently used. The objective of this study is to evaluate the influence of MOSESTM 2.0 technology on the outpatient success rate in patients operated on for HoLEP for BPH.
