Enlarged prostate. Computer artwork of a sagittal section through the pelvis showing a case of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The front of the body is at left. This is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland (cream,centre). The prostate sits underneath the bladder (pink,top),surrounding the urethra,the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body. Here BPH has caused narrowing of the urethra,which would cause difficulty passing urine. BPH is a common condition,affecting half of all men over 50 | |
