What are the types of treatments for prostate enlargement? Surgery to remove the enlarged prostate tissue is the fundamental cure for prostate enlargement. There are many surgical options for prostate enlargement: the treatment options adopted by our department are broadly categorized into two types: What are the treatments for BPH Lower urinary tract symptoms (dysuria, frequent urination, urgency, pain in urination, waiting for urination, thin urinary line) are experienced by patients with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), and are most valued by the patients themselves. Lower urinary tract symptoms and the resulting decrease in quality of life are the main reasons for patients to seek treatment, due to varying levels of tolerance. Therefore, the degree of decline in lower urinary tract symptoms and quality of life is an important basis for the choice of treatment. Treatments include watchful waiting, pharmacologic and surgical treatments. Watchful waiting is a non-pharmacologic, non-surgical therapeutic measure that includes patient education, lifestyle guidance, and follow-up.BPH is a progressive benign hyperplastic process of prostate histology that is less predictable, and after a long period of follow-up, only a small number of patients with BPH are likely to develop complications such as urinary retention, renal insufficiency, and bladder stones. Therefore, watchful waiting can be an appropriate management for most patients with BPH, especially if the patient’s quality of life has not yet been significantly affected by lower urinary tract symptoms. The short-term goal of pharmacologic therapy for patients with BPH is to relieve the patient’s lower urinary tract symptoms, and the long-term goal is to slow the clinical progression of the disease and prevent complications. Maintaining a high quality of life for the patient while minimizing the side effects of drug therapy is the overall goal of drug therapy for BPH. Surgical treatment: BPH is a progressive disease, and some patients eventually require surgical treatment to relieve lower urinary tract symptoms and their impact on quality of life and complications. Indications for Surgical Treatment: Surgical treatment may be an option for patients with severe BPH or for those whose lower urinary tract symptoms have significantly impacted their quality of life, especially if medication is ineffective or refuses to accept medication. Surgical treatment is recommended when BPH leads to the following complications: ① recurrent urinary retention (inability to urinate after at least one extubation or two urinary retentions); ② recurrent hematuria, ineffective treatment with 5α-reductase inhibitors; ③ recurrent urinary tract infections; ④ bladder stones; ⑤ secondary upper urinary tract hydrops (with or without renal impairment), patients with BPH with combined bladder diverticulum, inguinal hernia, severe hemorrhoids or Prolapse, and clinical judgment that it is difficult to achieve therapeutic results without relieving lower urinary tract obstruction, surgical treatment should be considered. Measurement of residual urine volume has a certain reference value for the degree of lower urinary tract obstruction due to BPH, but due to the instability of repeated measurements, inter-individual variation, and the inability to distinguish lower urinary tract obstruction from bladder weakness, it is currently considered impossible to determine the upper limit of residual urine volume that can be used as an indication for surgery. However, surgical treatment should be considered in patients with BPH who have a significant increase in residual urine to the point of overflow incontinence.
