Brief summary

Benign prostatic enlargement is a common condition in men and one surgical approach in its treatment is Millin prostatectomy, especially for large adenomas. In this study we are going to evaluate urinary symptoms, erectile function and quality of life in men before and after Millin prostatectomy.

Interventions

Millin prostatectomy for benign prostate enlargement. The approximate duration of the procedure is anticipated to be 60-90 minutes. Millin prostatectomy involves a transcapsular dissection of the prostatic adenoma, instead of a transvesical approach.
