    Journal: Nord Med; 1997 Mar; 112(3):89-92. PubMed ID: 9190566.
    Abstract:
    Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) has been the gold standard for BPH for over 50 years. For the last five years laser treatment of BPH has been developed as a new modality. The principles of laser surgery and the options available in clinical practice today are outlined. A survey of indications, patient selection, results and complications are given based on the authors' own experience and reports from the international literature.
