PROSTATECTOMY

Davidileemd22 Dec, 2021Health

A prostatectomy is a surgical procedure done to remove part or all of the prostate gland. The prostate gland is located in the male pelvis, below the urinary bladder, and surrounds the urethra, which carries urine from the bladder. The procedure is commonly done to treat prostate cancer (typically localized prostate cancer). It may be done as a stand-alone procedure, or in conjunction with radiation, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) ? also called prostate gland enlargement ? can cause uncomfortable urinary symptoms in older men, such as blocking the flow of urine out of the bladder. It can also cause problems with the bladder, urinary tract, or kidney. Patients diagnosed with BPH may be treated with medications, minimally invasive therapies, or surgery. To determine the best treatment option for the patient, the physician will consider the severity of symptoms, the size of the prostate, other pre-existing health conditions, and treatment preferences.

Urologist - ELEVATED PSA

Davidileemd19 Nov, 2021Health

Patients with elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels may have prostate cancer. Elevated PSA levels may also indicate non-cancerous problems such as prostate enlargement and inflammation. A primary care physician will work with the patient to identify the next steps. WHAT IS A PROSTATE-SPECIFIC ANTIGEN (PSA)? PSA is a protein produced by the prostate gland. A malfunctioning prostate gland releases abnormal levels of PSA. High levels of PSA may indicate the presence of prostate cancer.
