Predicting prostate surgery success with a scoring system
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests whether a simple scoring system can predict how well surgery for an enlarged prostate (BPH) will work. Doctors hope it will help plan the best treatment for each person.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had surgery for an enlarged prostate (BPH) and the tissue was confirmed as benign (not cancer).
- You had an MRI of your pelvis or prostate within 1 month before surgery.
- You had a bladder function test (urodynamic study) within 1 month before surgery.
- You completed a symptom questionnaire (IPSS) before and after surgery.
- You have been followed for at least 6 months after surgery, with no serious health issues like infection or other cancers.

This study looks at men with early-stage prostate cancer who had robotic surgery to remove the prostate. It aims to find which factors predict if the cancer might come back, helping doctors plan better follow-up care.
This study compares two surgical techniques for enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH) to see which one works better and how satisfied patients are afterward. If you have moderate prostate enlargement and urinary symptoms, this trial might help improve your treatment.
This study looks at how urinary flow tests and symptom questionnaires help doctors decide if surgery is right for men with urinary symptoms. It may help you understand your treatment options.
This trial tests a new device designed to treat symptoms of an enlarged prostate (BPH), such as frequent or difficult urination. It may help improve urine flow and reduce discomfort without traditional surgery.
This study looks at how well surgery works for an enlarged prostate (“benign prostatic hyperplasia”) and which care factors affect results. It may help improve future treatment planning and outcomes for people in Hong Kong.
