iTind (Temporarily Implanted Nitinol Device) treatment

iTind is a non-invasive treatment for BPH that involves inserting a device that opens new channels through which urine can flow.

How it Works

This procedure gently reshapes the prostate through a folded device implanted in the prostatic urethra. Over the course of 5-7 days, the device unfolds, creating new channels through which urine can flow. The device is then removed.

Procedure/Recovery

The procedure is performed in on outpatient basis.

  • The device is placed in the prostatic urethra in a folded configuration.
  • During the 5 to 7-day treatment, it slowly expands and exerts gentle pressure at three precise points to widen the opening through which urine flows through the prostatic urethra and then out of the body.
  • After 5 to 7 days, the device is completely removed.
  • Clinical trials demonstrate that the newly remodeled prostatic urethra will continue to provide long-lasting relief of BPH symptoms.

Side effects:

There are no known long-term side effects. Potential side effects during the procedure include:

  • Pressure in the perineum
  • Increased frequency and urgency to urinate
  • Light blood in urine
  • Slight burning during urination
