New Data Highlighting Effectiveness of Butterfly Medical's Minimally Invasive Device for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) Treatment to Be Presented at AUA 2025
Findings from Pilot and Long-Term Studies Highlighted in One Presentation
BOSTON and YOKNEAM, Israel, April 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Butterfly Medical, a medical device company focused on alleviating suffering in patients with BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia), announced today that new research on its prostatic retraction device will be presented at the American Urological Association's Annual Conference taking place April 26 - 29 in Las Vegas.
With limited BPH treatment options available, Butterfly Medical has developed a minimally invasive implantable device to treat BPH symptoms that does not require cutting or removing tissue. This long-term yet reversible procedure can be performed in various clinical settings under local anesthesia, allowing for future interventions if needed. The Butterfly Medical device has CE Mark Approval and is currently being evaluated in a pivotal clinical study in the U.S.
"Our device has demonstrated significant, sustained improvements in lower urinary tract symptoms caused by BPH, with positive trends observed up to five years post-treatment offering significant relief for patients," said Patrick MacCarthy, CEO of Butterfly Medical. "The findings that will be presented at AUA reinforce the clinical impact of our device and highlight its potential as a long-term, next-generation option for effective BPH management."
The new data will be highlighted in two presentations at AUA 2025:
