What is the UroLift System? The UroLift System is a proven minimally invasive procedure to treat an
enlarged prostate. It is the only leading enlarged prostate procedure
that does not require heating, cutting, or destruction of prostate tissue.
The procedure is typically performed as a same-day outpatient procedure,
including the office setting, under local anesthesia.1

How Does the UroLift System Work?
Step 1: The UroLift Delivery Device is placed through the obstructed urethra to
access the enlarged prostate.
Step 2: Small UroLift Implants are permanently placed to lift and hold the enlarged
prostate tissue out of the way and increase the opening of the urethra.
Step 3: The UroLift Delivery Device is removed, leaving an open urethra designed
to provide symptom relief
*No instances of new, sustained erectile or ejaculatory dysfunction in
the L.I.F.T. pivotal study
**When medical criteria are met
Indicated for the treatment of symptoms of an enlarged prostate up to 100
cc in men 45 years or older. As with any medical procedure, individual
results may vary. Most common side effects are temporary and include pain
or burning with urination, blood in the urine, pelvic pain, urgent need
to urinate, and/or the inability to control the urge.11 Rare side effects, including bleeding and infection, may lead to a serious
outcome and may require intervention. Speak with your doctor to determine
if you may be a candidate.
