Question 1

My dad's been dealing with this borderline prostatomegaly thing, and his ultrasound shows the prostate's borderline enlarged at 31x38x34mm and the volume's up to 224cc. There's no sign of any focal lesions, but I'm really worried. Is it necessary to go through another TURP surgery? Last time he had one was back in 2009. What's your take on this?

Accepted Answer

For borderline prostatomegaly with a prostate volume of 24cc, treatment options include watchful waiting, medications like alpha-blockers (e.g., tamsulosin) or 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors (e.g., finasteride), and lifestyle changes; TURP surgery may not be immediately necessary, especially since your father had it in 2009, but it's essential to consult a urologist for personalized advice and to monitor prostate health.

The most common option is laparoscopic varicocelectomy, which has fewer complications and a quicker recovery time compared to open surgery. It's best to discuss your symptoms and treatment options with your urologist to see if surgery is necessary in your case.

2. _Abscess formation_: A collection of pus can form within the lymph node, leading to rupture.
