Clinical features and management of benign prostatic hyperplasia
Abstract
Benign prostatic hyperplasia represents the most common benign neoplastic condition afflicting men and has a major impact on the health of the population. It refers to a regional and nodular growth of stromal proliferation which, because of its proximity to the urethra, causes varying degrees of bladder outflow obstruction.
