Abstract

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a common urological condition in older men, characterized by the non-cancerous growth of the prostate gland. It manifests through lower urinary tract symptoms, such as difficulty in urination, increased urinary frequency, and a sensation of incomplete emptying. The diagnosis involves a comprehensive clinical assessment, including imaging tests and measurement of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Exploration of the medical literature reveals a intricate narrative about Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and its surgical approach, prostatectomy. Prostatectomy is a surgical intervention performed to address prostate conditions, most commonly associated with prostate cancer. There are two main approaches: radical prostatectomy, involving the complete removal of the prostate and sometimes the seminal vesicles; and partial prostatectomy, aiming to preserve part of the gland. Indications for prostatectomy include the stage and aggressiveness of cancer, while complications may involve bleeding, infection, and erectile dysfunction. The choice between approaches depends on the individualized assessment of the patient. The relevance of a multidisciplinary team, including urologists, clinicians, surgeons, psychologists, and other healthcare professionals, resonates as a constant theme. This collaboration is crucial not only in interpreting clinical data but also in considering the psychosocial aspects that impact the patient's journey.
