چکیده

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) often produces chronic and progressive lower urinary tract symptoms or complications as bladder stone, leading many men to seek treatment. Prostatic enlargement due to BPH rarely exceeds 100 g, which occurs in only 4% of men over 70 years of age [1] .Giant BPH is arbitrarily defined as specimens over 200 g[2] or 500 g [3] ;the lower threshold was suggested by Japanese authors [2], Probably due to the low incidence of BPH in Japan [4 ]. The largest prostatic adenoma is ever removed by supra-pubic prostatectomy is weighed 820 grams, but he died after surgery due to hemorrhage [5]. We report a case with a 312 g benign prostatic hyperplasia with large bladder stones that was removed by supra-pubic prostatectomy in one piece successfully with 9 large stones.
