Steam treatment for big prostates approved on NHS The NHS can start offering a new steam treatment for benign prostate enlargement, says the regulator, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence.
The procedure is minimally invasive and can be done under local anaesthetic without an overnight hospital stay.
It involves passing a small probe up the urethra to inject a puff of steam into the troublesome area.
The steam kills off some of the enlarged tissue to ease symptoms. BBC News
