Intravesical Prostatic Protrusion

INTRODUCTION: Intravesical prostatic protrusion is a morphological change due to excessive growth of the median and lateral lobes of the prostate into the bladder in benign prostatic hyperplasia. It causes a 'ball-valve' type of obstruction during voiding. It is a useful parameter to assess the severity of the disease process, selection of treatment modality and its possible outcome in benign prostatic hyperplasia.MATERIAL AND METHODS: A prospective, non-randomized, observational study was carried out from January 2014 to June 2014 in the Department of Urology, College of Medical Sciences, Nepal. Total of 50 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia were evaluated to assess the correlation of intravesical prostatic protrusion with international prostate symptom score, prostate volume, maximum flow rate and post void residual urine. Correlation between parameters of interest was quantified with Pearson correlation test.RESULTS: A positive correlation was demonstrated between intravesical prostatic protrusion, international prostate symptom score, prostate volume and post void residual urine. There was a negative correlation between intravesical prostatic protrusion and maximum flow rate.CONCLUSION: Intravesical prostatic protrusion is correlated with international prostate symptom score, prostate volume, maximum flow rate, and post void residual urine volume and hence can be used to assess the severity of benign prostatic hyperplasia.Journal of Universal College of Medical Sciences Vol. 3, No. 1, 2015: 6-10

Introduction: Benign prostate hyperplasia, pathophysiology contributes to bladder outlet obstruction due to functional obstruction caused by gland size enlargement resulting in the lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Objectives: To determine the correlation of the prostate volume with surgical outcomes and postoperative LUTS in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Patients and Methods: Patients with BPH who were refractory for medical treatment enrolled in the study. Patients divided into three groups with attention to their prostate volume conducted by transabdominal ultrasonography. To evaluate patients’ LUTS, the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) questionnaire was filled for all patients preoperatively and during the first and third months follow up sessions. Results: In the current study, mean age of the patients was 66.92 ± 1.08 years. Of 111 patients, eight patients (7.2%) had prostate volume less than 30 cc, 59 patients (53.2%) had prostate volume between 30-60 cc, and 44 patients (39.6%) had prostate volume more than 60 cc. During first month postoperative, mean decrease in IPSS scores in patients with prostate volume less than 30 cc, prostate volume between 30–60 cc and prostate volume more than 30 cc were 27.72 ± 3.53, 27.32 ± 3.37 and 27.45 ± 2.87, respectively. The ANOVA test showed no significant difference between the groups (P= 0.93). Mean decrease in IPSS score during third month postoperative, had no significant difference between the three groups, too (P=0.71). Symptoms alleviation observed in 94.6% and 95.5% of the patients, during first and third months follow-up, respectively. Conclusion: There was no correlation between the IPSS scores decrease and patients’ symptoms recovery and preoperative prostate volume in patients with BPH who underwent TRUP.

Relevance. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is characterized by the presence of stromal and glandular hyperplasia in the periurethral and transitional zones. To describe the nature of intravesical growth of prostate tissue, an index of intravesical prostatic protrusion (IPP) was proposed. Clinically, men with an IPP measuring 10 mm or more are less likely to respond to α1-blocker therapy and 5α-reductase inhibitors. Thus, the description of the morphological features of the prostate depending on IPP grade is an actual issue. Purpose: to identify features of the morphological structure of the IPP in men with BPH. Materials and methods. Surgical treatment of the clinical form of BPH was performed to 30 men. Patients were divided into 2 groups: 1st group had IPP less than 10 mm (n = 12) and the 2nd group had IPP 10 mm or more (n = 18). In this study we evaluated the age, prostate volume and the value of IPP. The material for morphological investigation was obtained with transurethral resection of the prostate from the IPP zone. For light-optical examination, the preparations were stained with hematoxylin-eosin for routine evaluation of the structure of the prostate gland and for Van Gieson to estimate the proportion of the muscular and fibrous components of the stroma. The quantification of structural indicators was carried out by means of the television image analyzer MEKOS-TS2 in an automatic mode. Results: The groups were similar in age and prostate volume. In the group with IPP value of 10 mm or more, the proportion of the stromal component in the IPP zone was 77.5 ± 11.0%, the proportion of the glandular component was 22.5 ± 11.0%, respectively. In the group of men with IPP less than 10 mm, the proportion of the stromal component in the IPP zone was 96.0  1.5%, the proportion of the glandular component was 4.0 ± 1.5%, respectively (p < 0.05). It was also found that with an increase in IPP there is a tendency to decrease the proportion of the muscular component of the stroma. Conclusion: In men with BPH, with an increase in the value of intravesical prostatic protrusion in this zone, a relative increase in the proportion of the glandular component and a decrease in the proportion of the stromal component is proved, as well as a tendency to reduce the proportion of the muscular component of the stroma.

The objectives of this study were to determine and compare the correlation of intravesical prostatic protrusion (IPP) and prostate volume (PV) with bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). This study was conducted in the department of urology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh, between July 2009 to September 2010. Fifty benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients were included in the study. Their evaluation consisted of history along with International Prostate Symptoms Score (IPSS), digital rectal examination (DRE), transabdominal ultrasonography to measure prostate volume, intravesical prostatic protrusion & post voidal residual (PVR) urine and pressure-flow studies to detect bladder outflow obstruction (BOO). Statistical analysis included Unpaired ‘t’ test, Chisquare test and Spearman’s Rank correlation test. Receiver Operator Characteristic (ROC) curves were used to compare the correlation of PV and IPP with BOO. Mean prostate volume was significantly larger in bladder outlet obstructed patients (P<0.05). Mean IPP was significantly greater in obstructed patients (P<0.001). Area under ROC curve was 0.700 for PV and 0.821 for IPP. Prostate volume & intravesical prostatic protrusion measured through transabdominal ultrasonography are noninvasive and accessible method that significantly correlates with bladder outlet obstruction in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and the correlation of IPP is much more stronger than that of prostate volume. Introduction Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common diseases in elderly men. The prevalence of histological BPH increases with age and appears in approximately 40% of men aged 50- 60 years and in approximately 90% of men aged more than 80 years1. Benign prostatic hyperplasia may lead to prostatic enlargement, bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). But the symptoms and obstruction do not entirely depend on prostate’s size. In contrast, intravesical prostatic protrusion (IPP) has been found to correlate with BOO2. IPP is a morphological change due to overgrowth of prostatic median and lateral lobes into the bladder and may lead to diskinetic movement of bladder during voiding. This IPP would cause more obstruction than if there were no protrusion and just enlargement of lateral lobes, as the strong bladder contraction could force open a channel between the lobes3. Several studies have previously demonstrated that the ultrasonographic measurement of IPP is able to detect BOO in BPH patients quickly and non-invasively4. This study was designed to diagnose BOO through non-invasive methods and aimed to define the correlationDOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bmrcb.v38i1.10446  Bangladesh Med Res Counc Bull 2012; 38: 14-17

Abstract Purpose: To investigate the clinical significance of the intravesical prostatic protrusion (IPP) index in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients to clarify its diagnostic value in predicting the clinical and structural abnormalities of the prostate. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study, we include every man older than 50 years old with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), predominantly voiding or obstructive, suggestive of BPH. The patients were evaluated to determine the following indices: IPSS (International Prostate Symptom Score) Index, QoL (quality of life), prostate volume (PV) and postvoid residual urine (PVR), serum PSA level, and the maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax) obtained by uroflowmetry. Subsequently, the assessment of the IPP index was undertaken by transabdominal ultrasonography. The categorization of the IPP index was done into 3 grades: grade one (below 5 mm), grade two (between 5 and 10 mm), and grade three (greater than 10 mm). Results: The significant direct correlation between the intravesical prostatic protrusion and international prostate symptom score, quality of life, prostate volume, postvoid residual urine, and serum PSA as well as inversely with the maximum urinary flow rate was confirmed both before and after the medical treatment. Also, the need for surgical intervention increased significantly with increasing IPP levels. Conclusion: The intravesical prostatic protrusion can be used to evaluate and predict the severity of symptoms and outcomes in patients with clinical BPH.

Introduction: International Prostate Symptom score (IPSS) which is identical to AUA symptom index, is recommended as a symptom scoring instrument to be used for baseline assessment of symptoms severity in men presenting with Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms.The correlation of prostate volume PV, IPP and IPSS has been extensively investigated. It was generally accepted that there was weak correlation of PV with IPSS and strong correlation of IPP with IPSS.We conducted this study to nd out whether this generally accepted correlation holds true for our patients from north east region of india Materials and Methods:This was a prospectively designed study conducted in the department of Urology, Regional institute of medical sciences imphal to To correlate lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia with prostate volume and intravesical prostatic protrusion. A total of 154 patients of BPH were included in the study. Statistical analysis was done by using IBM SPSS Version 21 for windows.Chi square test/scher exact test was used as a test of signicance of the study for comparing the outcome variables. P-value <0.05 was taken as signicant. Spearman correlation coefcient for categorical data and Pearson's correlation coefcient analysis for continuous variables was carried out Results and Observations:In our study maximum number of patients were in the moderate IPSS grade category 89 patients(58.00%) were having moderate symptoms,55 patients(36.0%) were having severe symptoms and 10 patients(6.0%) were having mild symptoms.There was statistically signicant and strong correlation between intraprostatic protrusion and International Prostate Symptoms Score with ('p' value <0.0001 and r =0.78). There was statistically signicant and strong correlation between Prostate volume (PV) and International Prostate Symptoms Score with ('p' value <0.001 and r =0.56). Conclusion:This study concludes that both IPP and PV have strong correlation with symptoms of BOO measured by IPSS. IPP is easy to acquire and non invasive. IPP can also helps in predicting some times the high IPSS score despite of a small prostate volume
