title: [Late results of local transrectal hyperthermia in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and its complications].
abstract: LTH on Yakhta-4M unit was used in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The prostate was heated transrectally by directional radiation. The course of treatment comprised 5 sessions for 60 min twice a week. The efficacy of the treatment was assessed 3 years later in 78 patients which were divided into 4 groups: 31 patients with BPH, 30 patients with BPH in combination with chronic prostatitis, 9 patients with acute urine retention and 8 patients with cystostomy fistula. 5 patients underwent surgery. LTH is safe in relation to side effects, may be used both at early stage of the disease and in risk of operative intervention.
