Total Gland Ablation Experiences w' TULSA-PRO?

Posted by paulg24 @paulg24, Jan 25 11:36am

Greetings All, I'm seeking feedback on others' experiences w' PC who had total gland ablation via TULSA-PRO. Cured? ED? Incontinence? Complications? Other?
My PC is anterior bilateral Gleason 4+3 & right-base 3+4. Had consults w' two TULSA east coast experts & both recommend total gland ablation. A few cases in the forums I read where the ablated prostate tissue, weeks after the ablation, folded in on the urethra resulting in blockages & ER trips; one dr said this only happens if the prostate is very large (i.e.100cc). My prostate is 72cc. Thanks in advance!

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Prostate Cancer Support Group.

@paulg24, using the group search, I found quite a few discussions where fellow members have shared their Tulsa-pro experiences.

Did you decide to have the total gland ablation? How are the results?
