HTG is proud to feature Krongrad Institute in its provider network for prostate surgery. In 1999 Dr. Krongrad and his team developed the technical manual for laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) , and introduced minimally invasive prostate surgery to the US. Patients of Krongrad Institutes’ groundbreaking minimally invasive prostate surgery include Pat Robertson, baseball star Ken Griffey Sr, and Super Bowl champion Steeler Robin Cole.
Working together, Health Travel Guides and Krongrad Institute deliver the two key objectives of prostate cancer surgical care: broader access to top prostate surgery facilities coupled with the highest levels of surgeon experience in prostate surgical care. We welcome prostate surgery patients from all over the world, especially Americans, English, Canadians and Caribbean Islanders. For more information, read Dr. Krongrad information packet.. Green Light Prostate Surgery Mexico
Health Travel Guides' network urologist, Dr. Pedro Cueto, is using the newest FDA-approved laser technology to treat enlarged prostate with less risk and bleeding and a shorter hospital stay compared to traditional prostate surgery methods.
The new GreenLight PVP (photoselective vaporization of the prostate) system uses a special, patented (and FDA-approved) green-light laser a more effective wavelength than in other lasers to remove the excess tissue of the enlarged prostate. The procedure is minimally invasive to the prostate surgery patient: a laser fiber is threaded into the urethra to deliver the green-light energy, then removed.
GreenLight treatment for enlarged prostate appears to have the same success rate as standard TURP (removal of prostrate) in alleviating symptoms, with less risk of bleeding and a shorter hospital stay. Studies of the GreenLight procedure, which provide about five years of data, show that symptom improvements last at least that long. | | | | | |
