title: [Cervico-prostatic incision in the treatment of benign prostatic hypertrophy. Apropos of 40 cases].
abstract: The authors report on the results of 40 cases of cervico-prostatic incision for benign prostatic hypertrophy. Evaluation of the prostatic gland was based only on rectal examination. Operative technique is simple. We have treated patients with prostatic hypertropy less than 30 g. Young men with prostatic hypertrophy greater than 30 g have been treated by this technique, to preserve antegrade ejaculation. Success rate was 90% at 6 months and 85% at 18 months. Retrograde ejaculation was observed in 21% of the patients following treatment.
