Predicting surgery outcomes for enlarged prostate
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study helps doctors predict which men will benefit most from prostate enlargement surgery by using imaging scans and bladder tests done before surgery. The goal is to improve how doctors choose patients and predict recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery for benign prostate enlargement (BPH) and pathology confirmed this diagnosis
- You completed an MRI scan of your pelvis or prostate within 1 month before surgery
- You completed a bladder function test (urodynamic study) within 1 month before surgery
- You completed symptom questionnaires (IPSS) before surgery and at least 6 months after surgery
- You have complete medical records and imaging available for review
- You are in generally good health without active cancer, severe heart/lung/liver/kidney disease, or blood disorders

This trial compares three different surgical procedures for treating an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia). It aims to see which one is most effective and safe for men who need surgery.
This trial tests whether using real-time ultrasound during endoscopic prostate surgery helps surgeons remove prostate tissue more completely and safely. Men aged 50-80 with an enlarged prostate who are scheduled for certain types of prostate surgery may be eligible.
This study tests a new, minimally invasive procedure to relieve urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH). The procedure gently dilates (widens) the prostate to improve urine flow and reduce bothersome symptoms like frequent urination and weak stream.
This study is building a tool to predict how well a surgery called TURP (a procedure to remove part of the prostate) works for men with an enlarged prostate. It may help you and your doctor decide if TURP is a good option for your symptoms.
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.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for treating an enlarged prostate (BPH) when medication hasn't worked. It looks at which method—bipolar TURP or bipolar enucleation—may be safer and more effective for men with moderate to severe symptoms.
