Research recommendations coming out of this guidance

  • Evidence on the safety and efficacy of prostatic urethral temporary implant insertion for lower urinary tract symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia is limited in quantity and quality. Therefore, this procedure should only be used with special arrangements for clinical governance, consent, and audit or research.
