Background: We describe a patient who underwent waterjet ablation of the prostate after an unsuccessful prostatic urethral lift (PUL) procedure. Case Presentation: After PUL, our patient had incomplete bladder emptying with a postvoid residual of 600 mL. Urodynamic study of the bladder suggested detrusor underactivity. Our patient was motivated to undergo a salvage bladder outlet surgery. At 3 months after Aquablation, he reported complete resolution of bothersome lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Conclusion: This case report illustrates return of volitional voiding and significant improvement in LUTS after salvage bladder outlet treatment with waterjet ablation of the prostate.
