LEFKOS STAVROS – The Athens Clinic is pioneering by being the first in Greece to introduce the new AQUABEAM Robotic System for performing the revolutionary Waterjet Therapy – Aquablation, which represents the future in the treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).
The globally recognized Aquablation can be applied to prostates of any shape and size, and by harnessing the power of water, it achieves precise removal of problematic tissue, ensuring excellent and long-lasting results while eliminating unwanted side effects.
The treatment offers:

  • Immediate relief from excruciating symptoms
  • Preservation of sexual functions (erectile function, ejaculation)
  • Maintaining continence
  • Rapid recovery
  • Duration of results

Meet Robotic Waterjet Therapy - Aquablation

The Robotic Waterjet Therapy – Aquablation is the new groundbreaking service offered at the state-of-the-art Urology Center of LEFKOS STAVROS – The Athens Clinic for the treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
It is a minimally invasive method that uses water jets without heat for tissue resection and is performed by the specially trained urological team with the detailed guidance of our new robotic system AQUABEAM, in combination with Endoscopic & Ultrasound imaging.
This unique procedure offers the surgeon the ability to personalize the treatment plan for each specific anatomy, to perform excision of the problematic tissue with robotic precision, and to protect the vital tissue necessary for the preservation of normal functions.
Aquablation, the new Standard of Care, is aimed at men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia who are seeking immediate and long-term relief from the symptoms of the condition, without compromises—maintaining a normal life without unwanted side effects such as ejaculation disorders, erectile dysfunction, and incontinence.

The Aquablation procedure

Graphic_aquablation
Step1 > Surgical Combination

With the help of ultrasound imaging, the urology team creates a detailed guide for planning the procedure, which outlines the specific areas of the prostate that need to be removed. The tissue within the marked area of the prostate can be removed, while the tissue outside of it can remain untouched.

Step 2 > Removal of prostate tissue

Next, the AQUABEAM robotic assistance system follows the surgical plan with exceptional accuracy and consistency, achieving the detailed excision of the targeted prostate tissue using a water jet without heat.

Step 3 > After the completion of the treatment

After the completion of the procedure, urine flows normally from the bladder (passing through the prostate that has undergone treatment) and exits the body.

The effectiveness of Aquablation therapy based on clinical studies

  • >99% maintain continence
  • 100% maintain erectile function
  • 89% maintain ejaculation
  • 94% without the need for reintervention within 5 years
