Introduction And Aim: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the enlargement and overgrowth of the prostate leading to the compression of the urethra and resulting in obstruction to the outflow of urine. Prostatic urethral lift (UroLift) is a budding minimally invasive technique that utilises mechanical manipulation of the prostate tissue so that the urethra is free from compression, thereby creating a channel for the outflow of urine. The aim of the audit was to assess the short- to medium-term outcomes in our centre in terms of improvement in symptoms, quality of life (QoL) and complication rates.

We report here a rare case of a concurrent occurrence of abscesses caused by in the prostate, seminal vesicles, and epididymis. A 71-year-old male presented to our hospital with urinary retention, and an indwelling urethral catheter was inserted. He remained afebrile until a revisit one month later when he developed a fever and left scrotal swelling.

Objective: This paper aims to evaluate the disparities in efficacy and safety across various oral Chinese patent medicines for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), using a frequency-based reticulated meta-analysis.
Methods: The researchers searched the following databases: Web of Science, PubMed, Excerpta Medical Database (Embase), Cochrane Library, China Knowledge Network (CNKI), China Biomedical Literature Service System (SinoMed), Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform and China Science and Technology Periodicals Database (VIP). Besides, the researchers collected all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of oral Chinese patent medicines, as well as simple preparations and simple preparations for benign prostatic hyperplasia from the establishment of the database until July1, 2024.

Background And Purpose: A novel ring-gantry cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging system shows improved image quality compared to its conventional version, but its effect on autosegmentation is unknown. This study evaluates the impact of this high-performance CBCT on autosegmentation performance, inter-observer variability, contour correction times and delineation confidence, compared to the conventional CBCT.
Materials And Methods: Twenty prostate cancer patients were enrolled in this prospective clinical study.

Introduction: BPH/male LUTS is a prevalent condition in the aging male population with multifactorial pathophysiology. Pharmacotherapy remains the cornerstone of treatment in patients who fail conservative treatment. 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors (5-ARIs) is the only class of medication shown to reduce the risk of acute retention and BPH-related surgery and thus, are commonly used along with other 'short acting' medications in combination treatments.
