A physician can diagnose enlarged prostate through a digital rectal exam which typically occurs during a routine physical examination. [medicalneg.com]
Enlargement of the prostate or BPH The most frequent cause of prostate trouble is a condition called BPH. This stands for benign prostatic hyperplasia, which means noncancerous enlargement of the prostate. [stanleyducharme.com]
Prostatectomy, or the removal of the Prostate, is typically caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlargement of the prostate) or cancer. Prostate cancer affects approximately 189,000 men in the US each year. [badrobotsurgery.com]
In many of those instances, although the patient was exhibiting signs that would be either an enlarged prostate or prostate cancer, the doctor simply assumed it was an enlarged prostate, and thereafter did not perform or recommend any other tests. [litigationandtrial.com]

Like other saddle issues, you can minimize or even eliminate this one with proper saddle adjustment and bike fit, says Pruitt, who's worked with men with prostate disease using PSA as a bike-fit marker. [bicycling.com]
Since urinary changes are often the first signs of prostate problems, it may be difficult for the man with spinal cord injury to recognize early prostate disease without regular PSA (prostatic specific antigen) blood tests. [stanleyducharme.com]
Chronic nonbacterial prostatitis/CPPS has not been scientifically demonstrated to be primarily either a disease of the prostate or the result of an inflammatory process. [emedicinehealth.com]

Many large-scale prospective studies have analysed the correlations of patient-related and treatment-related parameters with acute and late toxicity to optimize patient selection and treatment planning. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Besides the clear benefits to the patients, the study shows such preventive measures can also help avoid prolonged, expensive hospitalization, need for additional treatment or surgery, as well as the costs of follow-up treatments. [sciencedaily.com]
Prognosis
Unfortunately, if there is spread of the cancer, the prognosis becomes worse. [medicalneg.com]

Prevention
There may be warning signs to help surgeons avoid damaging part of the urinary system during robot-assisted surgical removal of prostate cancer, ultimately preventing the expense of additional surgery, according to researchers at Henry Ford's Vattikuti [sciencedaily.com]
Overlooking basic hygiene prevention techniques could lead to serious health problems. [urotoday.com]
It can also mean the possibility of nerve-sparing surgery, preventing sexual dysfunction and preserving quality of life. [weisspaarz.com]
