title: [Clinical significance of urodynamic study in benign prostatic hyperplasia].
abstract: Urodynamic study, including UFR, cystometry, UPP, and EMG was carried out in 74 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) during the past 5 years. The correlations of prostate volume (57.3 +/- 6.3 ml), prostate length (4.94 +/- 1.23 cm) and detrusor pressure (6.54 +/- 4.73 kPa) were analysed. The results showed that urodynamic study plays an important role in indicating the time and method of operative treatment and predicting the prognosis of BPH operation. The fistularization of the bladder should be performed on the patients with the bladder disfunction. The measurement of the urethral resistance is of value in the diagnosis of posterior urethra obstruction than that of UFR.
