| description | Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is prostate weighting f over 500g and is usually public in men older than fifty years.A case of 78-year-old man was referred to Sina hospital complaining of urinary frequency. His total prostate-specific antigen was 17.3 ng/mL and the volume of his prostate was measured at 350 mL by transrectal ultrasound. Simple prostatectomy was done and a huge adenoma was enucleated in an open retropubic manner weighting 1070g. “Giant BPH” is a rare pathology of the prostate gland. In this study, we report a successful enucleation of a giant BPH (1070 g) without any significant complications. Keywords: Benign prostatic hyperplasia, BPH, Case report |
