While undergoing robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy, patients are positioned head-down and are at risk for facialswelling, arm injuries, as well as corneal or other eye injuries, the researchers explained.[consumer.healthday.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]
A physician can diagnose enlargedprostate through a digital rectal exam which typically occurs during a routine physical examination.[medicalneg.com]
In many of those instances, although the patient was exhibiting signs that would be either an enlargedprostate or prostate cancer, the doctor simply assumed it was an enlargedprostate, and thereafter did not perform or recommend any other tests.[litigationandtrial.com]
Bladder Outlet Obstruction The most common cause of a bladder outlet obstruction is an enlargedprostate.[urologyclinics.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]

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 prostatedisease 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 prostatedisease without regular PSA (prostatic specific antigen) blood tests.[stanleyducharme.com]
At the end of the trial, participants in both groups felt better, but those in the aerobic exercise group experienced significantly greater improvements in prostatitispain, anxiety and depression, and quality of life.[harvardprostateknowledge.org]
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]
The treatment sections of the book correspond to the staging of disease. The treatment of localized disease addresses the range of multidisciplinary management options including a discussion of prostate cancer's impact on the quality of life.[books.google.com]
“Removing rectal injury from the treatment essentially makes radiation therapy the treatment of choice for prostate cancer,” Kenneth Tokita, MD, senior author of the study and the founder and medical director of Cancer Center of Irvine in Irvine, Calif[newswise.com]
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]
We know from other studies that statins may augment the effect of conventional systemic treatments. Here, we see it may have a protective effect in the context of radiotherapy.[journals.lww.com]
