Transurethral hot water balloon thermoablation

The inclusion of a determinate technique among the "minimally invasive treatments" of the symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia is a long and careful process. The technique has to be more patient-friendly than conventional techniques, but also needs to be time-tested against older methods. Most of these minimally invasive treatments are based upon distinct types of thermoablation; the method discussed here, hot water balloon thermoablation, is based on the heat conductive properties of the prostatic tissue.
