Abstract:
Herein we describe the pathophysiological relationship between inguinal hernia and obstructive uropathy from prostatic hypertrophy, commonly known as "prostatism". We discuss the principles and the therapeutic approach when these conditions coexist, with special reference to combined surgery, whose main advantages are underscored.
