nutmeg_liverIs penile urethra damage not a risk factor when doing the TURP procedure? I guess this difference in likelihood should just be memorized...+6
nutmeg_liverSorry, looks like the TURP procedure is more for BPH, not necessarily an adenocarcinoma!+2
i_hate_it_hereI guess that makes sense cuz the prostatic plexus is more peripherally located which is the case for prostatic adenocarcinoma, while BPH is centrally locating impeding on the penile urethra. +8

The prostatic plexus of the pelvic splanchnic nerves is in close proximity to the prostate and risks damage.
