The patient had attended the urology clinic, suffering from recurrent urinary continence despite the use of medications. Since he was suffering from severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which made it difficult to perform the operation on him under general anesthesia to preserve his life, Dr. Nima Raad, a consultant urologist, decided to perform a water vapor injection into the prostate using the REZUM technique under purely local anesthesia. Then the patient was fully followed up and observed, and then he was discharged on the same day in full health and well-being and without any complications to live his life normally, praise be to God.
It is worth noting that this type of operation is considered the most advanced in the world in the field of urinary tract surgery, and this is in line with the vision of Al-Mouwasat Medical Services Company in attracting competencies and precise medical specialties while providing the latest medical technologies and equipment.
