Benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) refers to the non-cancerous enlargement of prostate. The treatment option depends on various factors such as age of the patient, prostate gland size, and severity of the disease. According to an article published in Urologic Clinic of North America, 2016, BPH is a common problem that affects over 20% of men in the U.S., which is around 15 million men. The treatment option includes medication, surgery such as open prostatectomy, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), and minimally invasive therapies such as transurethral needle ablation (TUNA) and minimally invasive therapies such as laser therapy, radiofrequency ablation, implants and others.
Increasing demand for minimally invasive therapies is expected to boost growth of the Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Surgical Devices. Minimally invasive surgeries have gained traction in the recent past, owing to various advantages such as significant reduction in postoperative pain, decreased recovery time, reduced hospital stays, lesser surgical scars, laparoscopic incisions being safer than open incisions, equivalent or better safety, and efficacy in abdominal and general surgeries as compared to open surgeries, and these surgeries may be less expensive than open surgeries.
Moreover, these therapies offer one-time permanent solution rather than long-time dependent on medications. Currently, more than 60% and 20% of patients suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia is on drugs and under observation. The minimally invasive therapies are focusing on these groups particularly and have also witnessed some success in attracting such customers.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia also called the enlarged prostate or prostate gland enlargement is a very common disorder that is observed in older men. The enlarged prostate can further lead to several uncomfortable urinary symptoms that involve the blockage of urine out of the bladder. The disorder is also capable of causing bladder, urinary, or kidney-related problems. However, there are is a wide range of effective treatments for prostate gland enlargement, which involves medication therapies, invasive and minimally invasive forms of therapies.
