From: The UroLift implant: mechanism behind rapid and durable relief from prostatic obstruction
A Localized compression in the implant zone between the Capsular tab (CT) and Urethral End-Piece (UE) results in reduced tissue perfusion. B Moderate lobular atrophy and minimal-mild chronic inflammation in tissue surrounding the implant observed at one and six months (the implant circled in green). C Stable end-stage healing response characterized by lobular atrophy and scarring in tissue surrounding the implant at 12 months.
