Has anyone had experience with TURis (also known as the button) for treating an enlarged prostate?

I’m trying to decide between the green light laser treatment or the TURis button for an enlarged prostate. I’m 87 years old and would like to hear from other people who’ve had this done

I’ve read some news articles on this new procedure but I haven’t found any that said the procedure was approved in the U.S. yet. I know the green light has been approved and is better than the antiquated TURP method. I would suggest you call a Urologist and ask them if the TURis is being used and/or approved for use in the U.S. You might have to call several since they are a jealous bunch when it comes to something new.

I survived breast cancer. YOU CAN TOO! GOD IS GOOD
