New Technologies Rufus Green Jr., M.D., FACS, welcomes you to his offices on the campuses of RHD Memorial Medical Center, St. Paul Medical Center, and Medical Center of Las Colinas. The TUNA is a heat treatment to the prostate done in approximately 45 minutes in an outpatient setting as day surgery. The TUNA uses radiofrequency as an energy source to shrink the prostate, thus relieving the obstruction to urination. To date there has been no adverse effect on potency, continency, or bleeding.
Most patients are able to return to their normal lifestyle within one day of treatment.
To learn more about the TUNA call The Urology Institute at 972 243-3368 or email.
