A giant prostatic urethral calculus has not been previously reported in dogs and should be distinguished from prostatic calculus. A 7-year-old castrated male Maltese dog with a 2-month history of relapsing hematuria and urinary incontinence with slowly progressing paraphimosis was referred. On abdominal radiography and ultrasonography, there was a giant calculus in the region of prostate or urethra, one left ureteral calculus, one urinary bladder calculus, and two penile urethral calculi. On computed tomography for evaluating the accurate location and planning the surgical approach, the giant calculus was located at the prostatic urethra. The calculi in urinary bladder, prostatic and penile urethra were surgically removed. These calculi were mixed-type of calcium oxalate monohydrate, struvite and calcium phosphate carbonate. On the basis of the urolith analysis and urine bacterial culture results, antibiotics and prescription diet were adjusted. At the 3-month follow-up, there were no clinical sings but paraphimosis was still remained, and ultrasonography revealed newly-formed, small urethral calculi at the prostatic urethra. This is the first report to describe the case of a canine giant prostatic urethral calculus and its clinical signs, diagnostic imaging findings, treatment, and outcome. CT may be useful to assess the accurate location and surgical approach for such calculi.

과거 방광결석으로 진단되어 처방식으로 관리 중인 6살의 잡종견이 혈뇨 증상을 주증으로 전남대학교 동물병원에 내원하였다. 환축은 복부 방사선 검사 결과 전립선 위치에 결석이 확인되었고, 초음파 검사와 CT 검사 결과 전립선 내 결석이 전립선 요도 내강으로 돌출되어 있음을 확인하였다. 환축은 prostatolithotomy를 통해 전립선 내 결석을 제거한 후 찢어진 전립선 요도를 봉합하였고, 결석에 의한 전립선 내강은 omentum을 채워 넣은 후 봉합하였다. 결석의 성분 분석을 위해 crystallographic analysis를 시행한 결과 결석은 magnesium ammonium phosphate (struvite) 80%와 carbonate apatite 20%로 구성되어 있음을 확인하였다. 환축은 수술 후 회복하여 뇨의 누출은 관찰되지 않았고, 혈뇨 증상은 개선되었으며, 수술 후 6개월에도 특별한 임상증상은 없었다.

A 3-year-old, male Shih-tzu dog with clinical signs of dysuria and hematuria was brought to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital. Chonnam National University. The patient was suspected urolithiasis by history taking and clinical signs but urinary and urethra calculus was not found in the radiographic examination. Enlarged prostatic gland (29.0$\times$28.0 mm) and severe finding of cystitis was observed from the ultrasonographic examination. The dog was finally diagnosed as the secondary urethral obstruction by benign prostatic hyperplasia. Castration was performed to treatment of acute hyperplasia of prostatic gland and prostatic cysts. After 26 days of operation, the prostate was defined small, hypoechoic, symmetric and decreased size (18.5$\times$18.0mm) by ultrasonography and dysuria cured completely.

Objective: This study was undertaken to examine the effect of Cortex Phellodendri on prostatic urethral pressure and mean arterial blood pressure of rabbits. Methods: To measure prostatic urethral pressure and mean arterial blood pressure, a Mikro-Tip catheter transducer was inserted and positioned in the prostatic urethra and left carotid artery. After a stabilizing period, phenylephrine ($1{\mu}/kg$) was intravenously administered two or three times to increase the urethral pressure and mean arterial blood pressure. Cortex Phellodendri (2.5 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg doses of Cortex Phellodendri extracted from 80% Ethanol) was administered intravenously, followed by phenylephrine, with no time interval between the doses. The urethral pressure and mean arterial blood pressure were then measured to determine whether they had stabilized. Results and Conclusion: Cortex Phellodendri appeared to inhibit phenylephrine-induced increases in prostatic urethral pressure and mean arterial blood pressure.

배뇨곤란, 혈뇨 및 간헐적인 구토를 보이는 8살의 중성화된 수컷 슈나우져가 병원에 내원하였다. 투시기 하에서 양성 요도 조영을 실시 하였고, 전립선 주위 요도에서 조영제가 누출 되는 것을 확인 하였다. 또한 전립선 요도부터 방광 삼각까지의 충만 결손이 관찰 되었다. 수술적인 교정이 부분적인 방광 폐쇄로 인해 실시 되었고 수술 중 주변 장기로 전이 소견이 확인되어 안락사를 실시 하였다. 주변 조직의 전이를 확인 하고 위하여 Cytokeratins (AE1/AE3) 를 이용하여, 주위 림프 조직을 염색하여, 전립선의 상피 세포 유래의 세포가 림프절에 전이 되었음을 확인 하였다. 본 증례는 수컷 개의 전립선 선암종의 발생 증례로 임상 소견, 영상 진단, 조직 병리학적인 자료를 기술 하였다.

25마리의 다양한 종의 수컷 개에서 전립선에서 음경골까지 각 부위의 요도를 최대로 확장하여 측정 후 그 경향을 조사하였다. 전립선, 요도막, 협부, 회음부, 고환, 고환앞, 음경골 부위에 각각 풍선카테터를 위치한 후 풍선 내에 조영제를 주입하여 영상촬영 후 분석하였다. 협부를 제외하고 전립선에서부터 음경골로 갈수록 각 부위의 최대 확장된 직경은 점점 줄어들었다. 골반 부위 근처에 위치한 협부에서 카테터의 풍선을 전립선 부위와 회음부로 견인 시 25마리 중 22마리의 개에서 강한 저항감이 있었고 직경 또한 원위부와 근위부의 직경보다 더 작았다. 이러한 결과는 요도를 확장시켜 요도 내 결석을 제거하는 수압추진법의 적용 계획을 세우는 데 기여할 것으로 사료된다.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia(BPH) is the most common benign tumor seen in the western male, and it is found in 50% of men over 50 years of age. It is characterized by the formation of large discrete lesions in the periurethral region. As they enlarge, these nodules tend to compress the urethra and cause partial or almost complete obstruction of .urine flow. The etiology of BPH is uncertain, but the increasing incidence with advancing age suggests the possibility of an imbalance between male and female sex hormones. In the past, most patients have had multiple indications to support the decision to initiate therapy. But both the urologic surgeon and the patient must be clearly aware of the results that can be expected and the risks involved in achieving them. The aims of this study are to investigate and summarize the current trends of treatment for BPH so as to suggest the effective and available way to treat the disease. In Oriental medicine, the BPH is recognized as uroschesis and ischuria, and the etiology is mainly in stagnated blood and insufficiency of the kidneys. The point of treatment of BPH is recovery of urination, and the treatment can be approached in two ways through herb drugs and acupuncture. Some of the herb drugs have substances which reduce BPB. Acupuncture therapy stimulates the pelvic plexus and is reported to be effective for voiding. Suppository, massotherapy, rectal injection, locus injection and attachment of herb drugs to the navel or the acupoint are announced as the effective treatments. So, this study of the approach and application of these treatments on BPH would be necessary.

This study is to provide evidence-based recommendations for the most-effective treatments of benign prostatic hyperplasia based on patient preference or clinical need, and to meta-analyze the Korean literatures for the development of BPH treatment guidelines. For these analyses, extensive literature searches (208 articles), with priority given to the Korean Journal of Urology, were conducted from 1960 to August, 1996. Meta-analysis, like all statistical analysis, has two main functions: data summarization (qualitative meta-analysis) and smoothing o. pattern recognition (quantitative meta-analysis). As well, critical reviews and syntheses with the mean and 90-percent confidence intervals for the likelihood were used to evaluate empirical evidence and significant outcomes of the BPH treatment literatures (106 articles). For this task, the Methodologic Panel for BPH Guidelines was composed of multidisciplinary experts in the field. The results of the study were summarized as follows: For all that watchful waiting is an appropriate treatment strategy for the majority of patients with prostatism, we couldn't find the Korean literatures which carried this article. The literatures on alpha-1-adrenergic receptor blockers provide no evidence to suggest that any one alpha blocker is more effective than another. The finasteride reduces the size of the prostate, on average, and leads to a small yet perceptible reduction in sysptoms. Of all treatment options, prostate surgery with transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP), and so on, offers the best chance for symptom improvement. However, surgery also has the highest rates of significant complications. Therefore, surgery need not always be a treatment of last resort. Balloon dilation of the prostatic urethra is clearly less effective than surgery in relieving symptoms, but it is associated with fewer complications. Emerging technologies for treating BPH include lasers, coils, stents, thermal therapy and hyperthermia. Established technologies will also be reanalyzed as results of new trials are reported. Although this study has some limitations due to lacking for good quality literatures, ' it provides a cornerstone for our medical research. It represents the most current scientific knowledge regarding the clinical epidemiology including treatment of BPH. It will be revised and updated as needed.
