title: [The indications for the surgical treatment of prostatic adenoma].
abstract: Proceeding from a comprehensive literature survey, an attempt is made to substantiate the single indications for operative treatment of prostate hypertrophy cases. Special attention is focused on the quantity of residual urine, clinical relevance of the uroflowmetric study, and individual assessment of the urologist, depending on his surgical experience. Last but not least important is grouping of the individual symptoms of prostate hypertrophy under the heading "prostatism" syndrome, since they serve not merely for preoperative evaluation, but also as an assessment criterion of the postoperative condition.
