Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common conditions experienced by aging males and a frequent cause bladder outlet obstruction macroscopic haematuria. “Giant hyperplasia” (GPH) term that describes rare cases extremely enlarged prostate glands, weighing up to 500g. Typically, patients with GPH have severe symptoms seek medical care treat their voiding complaints. an uncommon ...

Prostatomegaly is one of the most common conditions affecting the ageing male. The effects of prostatomegaly on voiding function, however, vary greatly from patient to patient and thus make measuring its impact a challenging task. Three most common causes of prostate enlargement are benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostate cancer and Prostatitis. Prostatomegaly affects the function of ureth...

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Prostate Cancer The symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia can also be caused by prostatic cancer, though they are far more likely to be due to benign overgrowth. Men with BPH do not have a higher incidence of prostate cancer (Coley 1997). The relatively high rate of prostate cancer in the general population, however, requires that an accurate dia...

Prostate artery embolization (PAE) has emerged as a promising treatment for lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We aim to provide an up-to-date review of this minimally invasive technique, including discussion of potential benefits and technical challenges. Current evidence suggests it is a promising and effective option for patients with large prostate...

BACKGROUND Virtual touch tissue quantification (VTTQ) is a new, promising technique for detecting the stiffness of tissues. The aim of this study is to compare the performance of VTTQ and digital rectal examination (DRE) in discrimination between prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). PATIENTS AND METHODS VTTQ was performed in 209 prostate nodular lesions of 107 patients with...

Middle-aged men presenting with symptoms of voiding dysfunction are often misdiagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia, urethral stenosis or neurogenic bladder. Here, we report a rare case of a 46-year-old man with a chief complaint of continually voiding dysfunction, diagnosed with giant multilocular prostatic cysts. Computed tomography (CT) scans showed multiple and large multilocular prost...

This study was to investigate the role of complementary and alternative medicine in the prevention and treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. For this purpose, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was performed over 12 months on 47 benign prostatic hyperplasia patients with average age of 53.3 years and international prostate symptom score over 8. Subjects received either sw...

Aim: to improve the outcomes of surgical treatment benign prostatic hyperplasia by bipolar transurethral resection based on personalized approach. Materials and methods. Surgical prostate was carried out in 50 patients: approach, that is extensive preoperative preparation, adopted 25 cases, standard procedure implemented rest cases. Functional were assessed 1, 3 6 months aft er surgery, taking ...

The prostate is a complex organ composed of epithelial cells and fibromuscular stroma. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a true hyperplastic process, with an increase in the number of cells arising initially in the transition zone of the gland. Complex stromal– epithelial interactions lead to benign prostatic hyperplasia in 50 percent of men by the age of 50 years. This process requires testicula...
