Sorafenib can cause a temporary skin condition that goes away after stopping the drug.

This research highlights the shift from surgical to pharmacologic and less invasive treatments for benign prostatic hyperplasia, noting finasteride's effectiveness in men with enlarged prostates and its ability to reduce acute urinary retention risk compared to alpha-blockers.

In this case study, a 3-year-old German Shepherd treated for an enlarged prostate with medication and surgery showed a significant prostate size reduction by 93.9% over 138 days, ruling out neoplastic processes.

A woman with a specific mutation causing adrenal gland issues faced fertility problems, but careful hormone therapy helped her manage it successfully.

This study found that Medicare patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia had high adherence to 5-alpha reductase inhibitor therapy, which was associated with a reduced risk of needing surgical intervention.

This review discusses strategies and translational advancements in urethral tissue engineering, concluding that a combination of hypoxia-preconditioned mesenchymal stem cells on pre-vascularized synthetic scaffolds may be most effective; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that dutasteride improved maximum urinary flow rate more effectively than finasteride when used in combination therapy with tamsulosin for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia over six months.

This retrospective study observed no significant difference in the prevalence of incidental prostate cancer between suprapubic prostatectomy and transurethral prostate resection groups, with most tumors being well differentiated and early-stage.
