Steam treatment for BPH (enlarged prostate) has been approved and utilized for several years now. Several hundred of these treatments have already successfully been performed at Mayo enterprise wide. There are trials ongoing for the potential use of steam to treat prostate cancer - it will take a bit longer to see if this is a viable approach.

Thank you

Dr. Kohler,

Can you talk about post treatment (REZUM). How long until improvement? Catheter and for how long? What has been you experience i.e. number performed versus outcomes? Thank you.
