Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

BPH occurs when the prostate gland enlarges and extends into the bladder neck,causing obstruction of urine flow.UTIs can result from urinary stasis,as the retained urine acts as a medium for organism growth.Gradual dilation of the ureter (hydroureter)and kidneys (hydronephrosis)can occur.Nitrogen products can accumulate in the blood (azotemia)and cause renal failure if the urinary obstruction is not relieved.
Bladder cancer is not a complication of BPH.
