TRUS examination before (A, B) and after surgery (C, D). This picture represents the face (A, C) and side (B, D) of prostate, on TRUS examination before GreenLight photovaporization (A, B) and after (C, D). We find a 62 g prostate with median lobe protruding into the bladder (*) before surgery that stayed after with a major decrease of prostate volume (30 g). TRUS, transrectal ultrasound.

TRUS reported BPH of 62 g with a median lobe of 6 g protruding into the bladder. The postvoid residual (PVR) volume was 22 cc (Fig. 1). The blood analysis showed good renal function (clearance 100 mL/m-1). At 3-month follow-up, outcomes still improved, even though TRUS reported a prostate volume of 30 g with a persistent median lobe (Fig. 1).
