Study Arms (1)
Temporarily implanted nitinol device (iTind) group
EXPERIMENTALSubjects will undergo iTind for the treatment of male LUTS.
Interventions
Cystoscopy will be performed to assess the anatomy of the bladder and prostate. The iTind device would be inserted under visual guidance into the bladder. The device will then be deployed and under visual guidance, it will be positioned at the prostatic lumen. After confirming the position of the device, cystoscopy will be withdrawn and the position will be finished.
