This is a prospective, two-stage, multi-center, pilot clinical study to evaluate the safety/tolerability/efficacy of the Omega System device. The Omega arc-shaped implant is inserted by the Omega delivery system into the prostate tissue of subjects to relieve lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The study will first evaluate the Omega system on patients undergoing prostatectomy, which is not indicated for the device.

5. Prostate length ≥ 3cm

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Unable to comply with the clinical protocol.

2. Vulnerable population such as inmates or developmentally delayed individuals.

3. Any medical condition or treatment, which in the opinion of the investigator may interfere with the procedure, such as:

   • Patient with coagulopathy due to medications or congenital condition - inability to stop taking anticoagulants and/or antiplatelets for at least 3 days prior to the procedure or coumadin for at least 5 days prior to the procedure (low dose aspirin therapy is not prohibited).

Stage 2

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Male ≥50 years old.

5. Participant understands and is willing to the informed consent form.
6. Prostate Volume between 30cc and 80cc.
7. Prostate length ≥ 3cm and ≤ 5cm

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Diagnosed or suspected prostate cancer. If suspected, prostate cancer must be ruled out.

2. Concomitant participation in another interventional study.

3. Unable to comply with the clinical protocol including all the follow-up requirements.

4. Vulnerable population such as inmates or developmentally delayed individuals.

5. Significant comorbidities which would affect study participation.

6. Any medical condition or treatment, which in the opinion of the investigator may interfere with the procedure ,such as:

   • Use of concomitant medications (e.g., anticholinergics, antispasmodics, or antidepressants) affecting bladder function.
   • Patient with coagulopathy due to medications or congenital condition - inability to stop taking anticoagulants and/or antiplatelets for at least 3 days prior to the procedure or coumadin for at least 5 days prior to the procedure; low dose aspirin therapy not prohibited.
   • Alpha-blockers within 2 weeks of pre-treatment (baseline) evaluation.
   • Taking 5-alpha reductase inhibitors (5-ARI) within 6 months (3 months for type II 5-ARI) of pre-treatment (baseline) evaluation unless evidence of same drug dose for at least 6 months with a stable voiding pattern (the drug dose should not be altered or discontinued throughout the study).
   • Patient is taking steroids. [Note: Patients approved for the trial who are using the above medications will continue using them after the trial, except for Alpha blockers.]

7. Previous prostate surgery such as: TURP, stent implantations, laser prostatectomy, hyperthermia or another invasive treatment to the prostate.
