A male patient underwent an aquablation procedure on (b)(6) 2019 and discharged home two (2) days later.Two (2) days post discharge, the patient presented to the emergency room with urinary retention (per manufacturer's instructions for use, urinary retention is listed as a potential perioperative risk of the aquablation procedure) and what appeared to be clots in the bladder.The patient was sent to the operating room for clot evacuation of the bladder.A cystoscopic procedure confirmed no clots were present in the bladder, but rather an intravesical prostatic protrusion, which was likely causing the urinary retention.Procept has conducted multiple attempts to gather additional information from the treating physician regarding course of action taken and condition of the patient without success.No further information has been provided to procept.No malfunction of the aquabeam robotic system was reported.
