1) the PVP laser seals the tissues as it cuts away the excess and thus a
clear visual field for the surgeon

whereas with the cutting of TURP the surgeon is working in a bloody field
with poor visibility hence the greater damage to surrounding muscle/tissues
and greater propensity for retro to be permanant

This is especially relevant with Middle Lobe enlargement where PVP scores
way higher in positive end results being normal

I would not hesitate to recomend PVP over and above TURP any day

Did not take one single painkiller afterwards either
