Diagnostic and prognostic value of the cystograms of patients with prostatic adenoma: distance between symphysis pubis and urinary bladder.
Presurgical cystograms of prostatectomized patients were compared as regards their diagnostic and prognostic usefulness. Because of the lack of fully objective prostatic adenoma symptoms, the authors concluded the distance between the urinary bladder and symphysis pubis to be an important radiological symptom in prostatic adenoma, being the measure of inflammation of the prostate and tissues of this region.
