To investigate the correlation between histological differences and clinical findings in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), quantitative morphometrical analysis on prostate was performed on 26 specimens obtained by TURP. The relative and total volume of each histological component wer

β¦ Synopsis
We compared the ultrasonic and histologic findings in 25 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who underwent retropubic subcapsular prostatectomy. Preoperative ultrasonograms showed a fine echogenic pattern in one case, a rough echopenic pattern in four cases, and a combination of these patterns in 20 cases. In cases exhibiting a mixed pattern, we analyzed each region individually. Ultrasonic and histologic findings were compared in a total of 45 regions. In the 21 regions with a fine echogenic pattern, 14 regions corresponded to those with complicated hyperplastic glands, one region with small cystic atrophic glands, and six regions with a mixture of the two types on histology in observation. In the 24 regions with a rough echopenic pattern, 20 regions corresponded to those with large cystic atrophic glands and an equal volume of large and small cystic atrophic glands were found in the other four. Thus, the echogenic structures observed in patients with BPH were determined by the presence of complicated hyperplastic glands and small cystic atrophic glands.

BACKGROUND. This investigation sought to determine morphologic differences between Chinese and Americans with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), in an admixture of stroma, epithelium, and luminal spaces. METHODS. Adjacent sections of simple prostatectomy specimens from China and the U.S
## Background: Prostate cancer is one of the commonest neoplasms in elderly males in developed countries. it is not clear which individuals are at high risk of developing aggressive adenocarcinoma of the prostate. biomarkers are therefore urgently needed to identify such individuals. it had been su
The lipid composition and concentration in human benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) were investigated. The reason was to shed some light onto the lipid environment of cellular membranes, in which the epithelial and stromal 5β£-reductase of the human prostate have apparently to be embedded in order to
## Background: The histologic composition of prostate adenoma seems related to the development of clinical benign prostatic hyperplasia (bph). therefore, a new noninvasive prediction model as an alternative for biopsies was investigated. ## Methods: In 19 patients, the data of a routine preoperat
Urinary excretion of nonesterified (NEC) and total cholesterol (TC) has been investigated in 79 patients with prostatic adenoma (BPH) and 48 patients with carcinoma of the prostate. Normal range of NEC was determined in 62 healthy individuals and was found to be 0.26-2.2 mg/24 hours (2 SD) with a me
