dc.description.abstractThe Rezum system has emerged as a promising treatment option for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) by employing endoscopic removal of prostate tissue. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the benefits and drawbacks of Rezum therapy in recent studies. A systematic literature search was conducted in EMBASE, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library databases until December 2021, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The search utilized keywords such as water vapor thermal therapy, Rezum, convective water vapor thermal therapy, and convective radiofrequency water vapor thermal therapy. A total of 21 studies were included in the analysis, comprising 5 prospective randomized studies, 2 case series, 2 randomized controlled trials, 1 crossover study, and 11 retrospective studies. The collective sample involved 2090 patients with a mean follow-up period of 14.42 +/- 18.08 (1-72) months and a mean age of 68.12 +/- 4.79 years. Significant improvements were reported in the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), quality of life (QoL), maximal flow rate (Qmax), postvoid residual urine volume (PVR), prostate volume (PV), and International Erectile Index Function (IIEF) values. Unlike other BPH treatments that often require general or regional anesthesia, the connective water vapor energy system can be administered with sedo-analgesia and local anesthesia, potentially leading to improved sexual function scores. Considering the relief of symptoms, Rezum therapy may serve as a viable alternative to transurethral surgery for patients with prostate volumes ranging from <30 to >80 cc.
