The urological center of the Botkin Moscow Men's Medical Center has introduced the latest method of treating prostate adenoma, the most common disease in men. This was announced today, September 25, according to the website of the Moscow government.

The urgency of the problem is evidenced by statistics — prostate adenoma occurs in about a third of patients aged 40-45 years and in 70 percent after 60. The method of the capital's doctors is based on the use of sterile high-temperature steam. It is delivered to the prostate through the urethra using special instruments under local anesthesia. The procedure does not require surgical incisions. Sterile steam passes through the tissues of the enlarged prostate and reduces its size, improving the quality of urination. The operation takes about 15 minutes and does not require a long hospitalization.

The Botkin Urological Center of the Moscow State Medical Center was the first among the clinics of the Moscow Department of Health to be equipped with high-tech equipment for such operations. For their implementation, urologists have undergone specialized training.

According to the head of the urological center, Professor and academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Dmitry Pushkar, the new method of treatment of prostate adenoma is the most modern and most gentle of all existing today. More than 100 patients have already received high-quality care.
