REZŪM THERAPY – AN OPTIMAL SOLUTION FOR THE EFFECTIVE TREATMENT OF BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common conditions affecting adult men, with prevalence increasing with age. The disease causes lower urinary tract symptoms that significantly impact daily activities and quality of life.

Depending on the severity of the condition, patients may be treated with medical therapy, minimally invasive procedures, or surgery. Medical therapy is commonly prescribed to relieve symptoms; however, it may be associated with various unwanted side effects.

LIMITATIONS OF MEDICAL TREATMENT FOR BPH

Medications used to treat BPH work through different mechanisms to alleviate symptoms but may cause side effects such as dizziness, headache, fatigue, and diarrhea.

More importantly, some adverse effects can directly affect male psychology and family life, including:

• Decreased libido
• Erectile dysfunction
• Difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection
• Abnormal ejaculation or dry ejaculation
• Retrograde ejaculation (semen flows into the bladder instead of being expelled through the penis during ejaculation)
• Reduced semen volume

REZŪM THERAPY – A MINIMALLY INVASIVE AND LONG-LASTING TREATMENT OPTION

Rezūm Therapy is a minimally invasive procedure that uses the natural energy of water vapor (steam) to remove excess prostate tissue that compresses the urethra. This advanced technique has recently been approved for clinical use in Vietnam, offering a safe and effective treatment option for men with BPH.

Rezūm Therapy is especially suitable for patients who:

• Do not respond well to medication or are dissatisfied with drug-related side effects
• Seek long-term symptom relief
• Wish to preserve sexual function

CLINICAL OUTCOMES RECORDED AT THE TNH HOSPITAL SYSTEM

According to Dr. Doan Tuan Son, MD, PhD (Level II Specialist) – Deputy Director of Thai Nguyen International Hospital:

“At the TNH Hospital System, we prioritize minimally invasive treatments that deliver sustainable outcomes for patients. Rezūm Therapy is one such solution.”

Clinical results from patients treated with Rezūm Therapy have been documented and presented at scientific conferences on the management of BPH:

• Significant improvement in urinary symptoms, such as nocturia and difficulty urinating
• Preservation of male sexual function, with patients maintaining normal sexual activity
• No reported cases of erectile dysfunction or retrograde ejaculation

BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA – A COMMON CONDITION IN MEN

BPH is the most common cause of lower urinary tract symptoms in aging men. Its prevalence increases with age:

• Approximately 50% of men aged 60
• 70% of men over 60 years old
• Up to 90% of men aged 85

Persistent symptoms may lead to discomfort, fatigue, and hesitation in daily activities, negatively affecting overall well-being.

EXPERT RECOMMENDATION

Men experiencing symptoms of BPH are encouraged to consult a urology specialist for evaluation and discussion of treatment options. While multiple therapies are available, no single method is suitable for every patient. A specialist can help determine the most appropriate treatment based on individual conditions.
