✦ Synopsis

Abstract

This paper stresses the value of transabdominal ultrasound that utilizes basic ultrasound equipment in evaluating the size of the prostate. We performed ultrasound examinations on 43 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, and in 33 of these, sonography was done prior to surgery in an effort to compare the size of the prostate estimated by ultrasound with that of the postoperative specimen. In the vast majority of these patients, the difference between the estimated size and that of the specimen was insignificant. Ultrasound examination is easy, fast, noninvasive and reasonably accurate.
