Coming soonBenign prostatic hyperplasia is a nonmalignant urological disorder characterized by the progressive proliferation of stromal and epithelial cells within the transition zone of the prostate gland.
It predominantly affects aging men, with its histological and clinical prevalence increasing markedly after the fourth decade of life.
As the expanding tissue compresses the prostatic urethra, it induces bladder outlet obstruction that frequently manifests as lower urinary tract symptoms, including urinary frequency, urgency, nocturia, weak stream, hesitancy, and incomplete bladder emptying.
Untreated or progressive obstruction may lead to secondary complications such as acute urinary retention, recurrent urinary tract infections, bladder calculi, and hydronephrosis.
