Finasteride can treat prostatic haematuria, but its use is controversial.

This case study reported a successful surgical excision of two cephalocele lesions in a female neonate, resulting in uneventful recovery and appropriate neurodevelopment during a seven-month follow-up.

This review discusses medical treatments for lower urinary tract symptoms suggestive of benign prostatic hyperplasia, focusing on their effects, side-effects, and implications for treatment goals, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that finasteride treatment was more effective in treating prostatitis-related hemospermia compared to non-prostatitis cases, particularly after excluding sonographically abnormal cases.

This study found that hydralazine and minoxidil, two direct vasodilators, may worsen abdominal aortic aneurysm progression by increasing aortic degeneration and inflammation.

This study found that both finasteride and dutasteride led to morphological and functional kidney damage in rats, with more severe effects observed in the dutasteride group.
