iTind is an innovative FDA approved device designed to improve urinating symptoms caused by BPH. It is a temorary expandable Nitnol/Titanium implant, that once placed in the prostatic urethra gently forms stellate long lasting grooves which reshapes the prostate and bladder neck effectively relieving the obstruction and allowing for improved urinary flow. Dr Hollowell is the first surgeon to provide the treatment in the state of Florida.
The iTind device is an office based minimally invasive procedure that is placed through a cystoscope and positioned in the prostate.
This non-surgical device is not for everyone. Your prostate size and shape would dictate whether you are a good candidate for this procedure. Typically, it is for a younger man with BPH symptoms that has a smaller prostate and a high or tight bladder neck. An office cystoscopy would characterize your prostate anatomy.
