Bladder outflow obstruction, whether due to benign hyperplasia or cancer, affects up to 40 per cent of men during their lifetime. This manual is designed to provide an up-to-date and comprehensive review of the pathogenesis, diagnosis and management of benign and malignant prostatic enlargement and its clinical sequelae. By providing an easily understood yet critical review of the plethora of new therapies which have recently become available, this manual should help physicians decide upon the most appropriate treatment for the individual patient.
Part 1 The clinical presentation of BPH: benign prostatic hyperplasia, aetiology and pathogenesis; the clinical problem posed by BPH - epidemiology; the economic consequences of BPH; the clinical presentation of BPH; pathology of BPH. Part 2 Diagnosis: the management of BPH as an overview to the subject; urodynamic diagnosis of BPH; symptomatic diagnosis of BPH, including the use of symptom scores. Part 3 Treatment: management of BPH - to treat or not to treat - watchful waiting. Part 4 Pharmacotherapy: alpha-blockade; hormonal therapy. Part 5 Minimally invasive therapy: minimally invasive surgery for BPH - an overview; stents; balloon dilatration; electro-magnetic wave therapy; laser therapy; high-intensity-focused ultrasound. Part 6 Surgery: open surgery; trans-urethral resection of the prostate; bladder neck incision and trans-urethral incision of the prostate. Part 7 Sharing care of the patient: pathology associated with BPH (chronic renal failure, chronic retention, acute retention, incidence of carcinoma); sexual function in association with BPH, including the influence of treatment; the role of the urologist; the role of the general practitioner; the role of the specialist nurse adviser; the shared care approach to BPH - is it really appropriate?
