چکیده
Research has shown that benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common non-cancerous neoplasm (tissue growth or tumor) among American men. BPH, a chronic condition associated with increasing lower urinary tract symptoms, affects nearly 3 out of 4 men in their 70’s.

Furthermore, prostate cancer ranks as the 3rd most common cancer in men worldwide and the 2nd leading cause of cancer deaths among men in the U.S.1-4
