Abstract
The affliction of disturbances of the voidance of urine in aging men is becoming an ever more frequent medical problem because of the rising life expectancy of our population. The cause of the urinary obstruction is fibromyoadenomatosis of the paraurethral glands which may develop at any time after the age of 40. Transurethral electroresection ist the ideal method for the complete removal of a small to medium sized prostatic adenoma. Once the technique of resection has been mastered, complications are always absolutely avoidable and rare.
