Journal Title: Open Access Journal of Urology & Nephrology - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
One of the most common diseases in men in the second period of adulthood, in elderly and old ages is "Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)." Moreover, if at the age of about 40-49 years, it occurs in 11.3% of men, after 80 years it is found in 95.5%. The etiology of prostate adenoma (BPH) exists in the form of hypotheses and it’s in many respects controversial. Objective of the research: to establish the most common somatotype of patients with prostatic adenoma (PA) according to the index of Tanner and Rees-Eysenck body index.
