Not at all. Our device does not go through the penis, doesn’t damage the urethra or resect prostatic tissue. As a result, there is no risk to any sexual or urinary functionalities. There is no post op catheter.

You can say "based on [X], we believe the risk of [Y] is insignificant." Saying there is "no risk" is far too sweeping a claim given the level of evidence it sounds like you've gathered.
You are correct - we will have to back our claim through clinical evidence.
However, there is no risk to urinary function, because we do not insert anything through the penis. There is no damage to the urethra.
Similarly, sexual dysfunctions happen because of damages to prostatic nerves when folks are poking stuff through the prostate or cutting things out.
Its similar to saying that getting a BPH procedure poses no risk to your eyesight.
My statements are based on the 200+ patients done through bilateral sclerotherapy of varicocele patients, which is an inferior version of our procedure. But I agree with you point - we will prove it out through our own clinical studies.
Not at this time, apologizes. As we move along, we intend on releasing data and images through publications.
However, if you are into reading scientific papers, you can look up microsurgical anastomosis for varicocele treatment by Belgrano and Flati (separate bodies of work). That should give you an idea and good visual picture of the procedure.
