Aquablation Therapy: Surgical Treatment For BPH
​
Aquablation utilizes high-tech robotic technology to address one of the most common problems a man experiences as he gets older, BPH (prostatic enlargement).
It’s a minimally invasive treatment that uses the power of water delivered with robotic precision to provide long-lasting BPH relief with low rates of irreversible complications.
This is a resective procedure, meaning that the prostate tissue causing symptoms is removed. No incision is made, as the prostate is reached through the urethra.
​
Dr. Rockove will identify important anatomy that maintains sexual function and continence to create a personalized treatment. Below is a brief video, outlining how Dr. Rockove will mark the locations for treatment, in real time.
Once Dr. Rockove creates the plan, a robotically-controlled, heat-free waterjet removes the prostate tissue. This robotic technology ensures the prostate tissue is removed precisely, consistently, and predictably. Below is simulation of the process.
