Journal Title: Urology, Nephrology and Andrology International - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Background: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common benign neoplasm of the aging male. The incidence of prostatomegaly increased with age. Enlargement of prostate is the disease of the advancing years and is never seen in early life, It is common disease of man and up to no 2 to 4 of 40 men in their sixties is operated for BPH. Objective: To clinically study the preoperative prostate weight and postoperative weight in transurethral resection of the prostate patients with reference to prostatic weight loss and compare it with western studies. Materials and Methods: This study is carried out in Owaisi Hospital & Deccan College of Medical Science, Hyderabad from August 2015 to September 2016. A total 63 cases of BPH, aged between 4385 years (men age 62.8y) with the lower urinary tract symptoms were evaluated by using American Urological Association (AUA) score, Q Max <15 ml/sec and digital rectal examination, who underwent transurethral resection of prostate were enrolled for the study. Results: Majority of patients were from severe followed by moderate AUA Symptom score. The Prostate specific antigen (PSA) was measured in all cases. The preoperative and post operative prostate size was measured and calculation done accordingly. Conclusion: Majority of the parameters taken in this study is comparative to the western study. Which indicate the behavioral/natural pattern of BPH and the management and their outcome in Indian scenario and the western scenario are almost the same.
