In-hospital complication rate was 3.4%. 93% of men were catheter-free at 30\u00a0days. The acute accident and emergency attendance rate within 30\u00a0days was 12.0%. Results of Kaplan Meier analysis for subsequent re-treatment (including additional UroLift and endoscopic intervention) at 1 and 2\u00a0years were 5.2% [95% CI 4.2 to 6.1] and 11.9% [10.1 to 13.6] respectively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This real-world analysis of UroLift shows that it can be delivered safely in a day-case setting with minimal morbidity.
