The problem of treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BHP) remains highly relevant due to the high prevalence of this disease, its negative impact on the quality of life, and high risk of serious complications, such as acute urinary retention, acute renal failure, hematuria, and bladder tamponade.Moreover, patients with BHP usually demonstrate high hospitalized incidence. In Nizhny Novgorod region, the hospitalized incidence was 462.3 per 100,000 men of the relevant age in 2010. The majority of BHP patients admitted to hospitals (87.1%) have undergone surgical treatment. More than half of them had emergency hospitalization; 4.6% of patients suffered from acute urinary retention and 1.2% of patients were diagnosed with acute renal failure.
