Abstract

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the most prevalent urological disease in men that leads to lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The clinical presentation is, most likely, obstructive symptoms such as intermittency, hesitancy and poor stream, due to the obstructive nature of the pathology. BPH treatment approach varies. However, they can be divided into two main approaches which are non-surgical and surgical. Non-surgical methods usually started first, such as lifestyle modifications, watchful waiting, and medications. Hence, surgical intervention remains the mainstay of treatment to relieve clinical symptoms. Although transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the gold standard, management is shifting towards minimally invasive surgeries such as Rezūm due to its good outcome and fewer adverse effects. We present a case of prostatic tissue sloughing, a rare complication post Rezūm system therapy in a 50-year-old male.
