Greenlight Laser Surgery

Greenlight Laser Prostate Surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that helps men with an enlarged prostate. It uses a special laser to remove extra prostate tissue, which can improve problems with urination.

Due to the nature of this surgery, it comes with several benefits, like shorter hospital stays, and quicker recovery. A consult with Dr Chabert will confirm if this is the best enlarged prostate treatment for you.

Urolift

UroLift is a non-surgical treatment for enlarged prostate (BPH), or those with urinary symptoms related to BPH. It involves placing small implants in the prostate to lift and hold the enlarged tissue away from the urethra, improving urinary symptoms. The procedure is quick, done in a single session, and doesn’t require general anesthesia.

UroLift offers advantages like minimal downtime, preservation of sexual function, and low risk of side effects. Patients often experience rapid symptom relief and can resume their normal activities soon after the procedure.

Artemis

Artemis is an innovative technology used for prostate cancer detection and diagnosis. It combines magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with real-time ultrasound imaging to provide detailed visualization of the prostate gland. By merging these imaging techniques, Dr Chabert can identify suspicious areas that may indicate the presence of prostate cancer.

During a biopsy, the fusion of these images helps guide the needle to target specific areas for tissue sampling. This improves accuracy, reduces false negatives, and assists in personalized treatment planning for prostate cancer patients.

Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is the 6th most common cancer worldwide, and the most common cancer (apart from skin cancers) in Australian men.

What is the Prostate?
The prostate is a small gland located below the bladder and in front of the rectum in men. It is a part of the male reproductive system and plays a role in producing and secreting seminal fluid, which nourishes and helps transport sperm. The prostate surrounds the urethra, the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body. It is important for maintaining proper urinary and sexual function.
What is prostate cancer?

Prostate cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the prostate gland, which is a part of the male reproductive system. It occurs when abnormal cells in the prostate grow and multiply uncontrollably, potentially spreading to other parts of the body.

What are the symptoms of prostate cancer?

Symptoms of prostate cancer can include frequent urination, difficulty starting or stopping urination, weak urine flow, blood in the urine or semen, erectile dysfunction, and pain or discomfort in the pelvic area. However, in its early stages, prostate cancer may not cause noticeable symptoms.

How is prostate cancer diagnosed?

Prostate cancer can be diagnosed through a combination of tests. These include a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test, a digital rectal examination (DRE), imaging tests such as Artemis, MRI or ultrasound, a prostate biopsy, where a small sample of tissue is taken for analysis.

What are the treatment options for prostate cancer?

Treatment options for prostate cancer depend on factors like the stage and aggressiveness of the cancer. They can include active surveillance (monitoring without immediate treatment), surgery (prostatectomy), radiation therapy, hormone therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or targeted therapy. The best treatment approach is determined on an individual basis.
