Patient's question:
What are the treatment methods for prostate stones? My uncle always says it hurts when he urinates. Under the guidance of his family, he went to the hospital for a comprehensive and detailed examination, which resulted in the diagnosis of prostate stones. I want to know what the treatment methods for this disease are? In order to control the disease, what should we pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
For deep and multiple prostate calculi, transperineal total prostatectomy can be used to remove the prostate and stones. If necessary, both seminal vesicles can be resected. For large and multiple benign prostatic hyperplasia stones, suprapubic prostatectomy and stone removal are recommended. However, surgery is more challenging for cases of prosthesis-associated peri-prosthetic inflammation. Traditional surgical treatment for prostate stones is rarely used in medicine because of the high recurrence rate, long recovery time, and significant physical harm to the body.
