In addition, a comprehensive review of office based techniques and future therapies currently being developed is presented.

Reviews
From the book reviews:
“Experts in the field provide a succinct but thorough review of current techniques for the procedure-oriented management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). … It is written for urologists who manage patients with lower urinary tract voiding dysfunction secondary to BPH. It discusses all technologies currently available for the management of BPH, and is an important addition to any library for experienced or future urologists.” (Akhil K. Das, Doody’s Book Reviews, February, 2015)Editors and Affiliations
