Discussion on the time of surgical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia / 中华泌尿外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a slowly progressing benign disease. Some patients still have to receive operation. If surgical treatement time is not proper, it may increase the risk of operation and reduce therapeutic effect. However, there is still lack an effective method to evaluate the optimal timing of BPH surgery. The large-scale, multi-center, high-quality clinical trials are needed to clarify the reasonable solutions.
