Abstract

Aquablation has been well-studied in prostates sizes up to 150 mL. Recently, American Urological Association guidelines distinguish surgical interventions for men with large prostates (80 mL-150 mL) and now very large prostates (> 150 mL). Readers will gain an understanding of how to use Aquablation in the very large prostate size category.
