Synopsis

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BEP) or prostate enlargement is a common condition that affects older men. It is usually not a serious threat to health, but puts pressure on the bladder and urethra, which affects the passing of urine. This book is a comprehensive guide to BEP, covering all aspects of the disorder, from etiology and evaluation, to medical and surgical management. Divided into fifty chapters, it provides detail on all conditions associated with BEP, including acute and chronic urinary retention, asymptomatic prostatic enlargement and post prostatectomy incontinence. TURP (transurethral resection of the prostate) surgery is covered in depth.
