Objective:
The aim: To improve the results of treatment of patients with polyps of the external urethral orifice by using minimally invasive surgery.
Patients And Methods:
Materials and methods: The materials of the work are based on clinical examination and treatment of 22 patients with polyps of the external urethral orifice in the treatment of which, along with classical treatment were used minimally invasive methods of removal of polyps of the external urethral orifice using high-intensity laser.
Results:
Results: We managed to reduce the duration of surgery and treatment twice less, to avoid typical complications, which accelerated the regeneration process and the rehabilitation period.
Conclusion:
Conclusions: The use of minimally invasive surgical methods to remove urethral polyps can reduce the duration of treatment by reduction of the thermal and mechanical load on the surrounding tissues and reducing the time of surgery.
