[Urethral Hemangioma with Repeated Urinary Retention by Posterection Hematuria].

A 73-year-old man presented to our hospital due to postejaculation gross hematuria and dysuria. Three months after onset, urinary retention occurred repeatedly. Under general anesthesia, cystourethroscopy following drug-induced erection was performed.

Evaluation of Intravesical Prostatic Protrusion as a Predictor of Dutasteride-Resistant Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms/Benign Prostatic Enlargement With a High Likelihood of Surgical Intervention.

Objective: To investigate factors predicting that combination therapy would be insufficient in terms of efficacy, necessitating conversion to surgical intervention, in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms and/or benign prostatic enlargement.

Materials And Methods: In total, 218 patients given combination therapy for 6 months or more were enrolled in our study. Candidate factors for surgical intervention before dutasteride administration were statistically analyzed.
