Benign prostatic hyperplasia by Sayed Eleweedy

  1. 1. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Sayed M Eleweedy Prof. Of Urology Urology Department Alazhar University
  2. 2. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Definition A regional nodular prostatic growth of varying combination of glandular and stromal (fibromuscular) proliferation that occurs in almost men who have testes and who live long enough Hyperplasia not hypertrophy
  3. 3. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Definition and terminology • Microscopic BPH • Histological evidence of cellular proliferation • Macroscopic BPH • Organ enlargement due to cellular proliferation • Clinical BPH • LUTS thought to be due to BPH
  4. 4. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Definition and terminology BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia) – for histological diagnosis only BPE (benign prostatic enlargement) – for anatomical diagnosis only BOO (bladder outlet obstruction) – for functional diagnosis only BPO (benign prostatic obstruction) – functional diagnosis when the prostate is the cause. LUTS – Instead of prostatism
  5. 5. Prevalence of pathological BPH with age 48% 29% 11% 92% 87% 77% 31-40 41-50 51-60 61-70 71-80 81+ Age (years)
  6. 6. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Prevalence Clinical BPH develop in 20-50% of men with microscopic or macroscopic BPH Clinical BPH in 5-30% of men ages 55-74 years. Only 40% of them complain of LUTS. Only 20% of them seek medical advice.
  7. 7. Prostatic Configuration  LOBAR CONFIGURATION (LOWSLY) Anterior, Posterior, Middle and 2 Lateral Lobes  ZONAL CONFIGURATION( McNEAL, 1972, 1968, 1980) Anterior fibromuscular stroma (30% of the prostatic volume) Glandular part (70% of the prostatic volume) Peripheral zone Central zone Transition zone
  8. 8. Prostatic Configuration Fibromuscular stroma 30% of the prostatic bulk Has no specific pathology Peripheral zone 75% of the glandular tissue Site of cancer Central zone – Between peripheral and transition zone Has no specific pathology Transition zone Periurethral zone Site of BPH

  11. 11. Schematic transverse section of normal prostate
  12. 12. Schematic transverse section of enlarged prostate Typical location of benign nodular hyperplasia. Posterior displacement of both peripheral and central zones.
  13. 13. Prostate Growth
  14. 14. DHT- a determinant of prostate growth DHT thought to exert influence over prostate cells via cascade of molecular interactions Androgenic action of DHT dependent upon the binding to the high affinity nuclear androgen receptor (AR) protein Androgen receptor proteins contain both DHT and DNA binding domains Affinity of binding of DHT to AR complex is 5 times higher than with Testosterone
  15. 15. DHT formation Testosterone (T) is the principal androgen secreted by the testis T is converted to DHT by the enzyme 5 a-reductase (5-AR) DHT is the active intracellular androgen that has the major androgenic effect This provides the scientific basis for the advent of 5-AR inhibitors for the management of BPH
  16. 16. Type 1 Type 2 Size 259 amino-acids 254 amino acids Gene location Chromosome 5 Chromosome 2 Enzyme location Liver Non-genital skin Scalp Genital tissue Seminal vesicles 5-alpha reductase enzymes Occurs as two isoenzymes type 1 and type 2
  17. 17. Growth factors and prostate development A number of growth factors, expressed by mesenchymal or epithelial components of the prostate have been identified: –Stimulatory growth factors : Epidermal growth factor EGF, Fibroblast growth factor FGF Insulin-like growth factor IGF Transforming growth factor TGF a – Inhibitory growth factors : Transforming growth factor TGF- b
  18. 18. Growth factors and prostate development + Androgen ― Androgen TGFb1 EGF bFGF1/FGF2 TGFb1 Apoptosis Cell Proliferation Apoptosis Cell Proliferation An almost homeostatic relationship between TGFb1 (growth suppressing) and the Stromal growth promoter bFGF/FGF2 This suggests a degree of resilience to variation in androgen level which may explain the comparatively slow normal growth of the prostate in response to continuous exposure to DHT
  19. 19. BPH Development & Aetiology
  20. 20. BPH Development BPH develops in various stages; Induction of microscopic hyperplasia Development of microscopic nodules Manifestation of clinical BPH : – Prostatic enlargement – Bladder outlet obstruction – LUTS
  21. 21. BPH Development Microscopic Stromal nodules begin to grow within the prostate around the age of 30 - 40 years The nodules occur around the transition zone in the Periurethral area and glandular hyperplasia then develops around them Nodules vary in size from a few mm to a few cm and contain either: – Glandular elements – Fibromuscular elements (Stromal generally the larger component) – Mixture of both The nodules will continue to grow in most men when they age
  22. 22. BPH Development As the amount of glandular tissue grows, the outer layer of prostate tissue becomes compressed A tough capsule is created which forces the gland to form lobes The size and position of the lobes relative to the bladder and urethra can impact the type and severity of LUTS If the enlarged prostate encroaches on the urethra obstruction can occur, but this can also result from an alteration of prostate smooth muscle contractility or by the prominent median lobe of the prostate behaving as a ball valve
  23. 23. Development of BPH : Early
  24. 24. Development of BPH : Intermediate
  25. 25. Development of BPH : Late
  26. 26. Normal bladder and prostate BPH is the most common neoplasm in man Pathological changes of this disorder can be found in 50% of men in their 5th decade and in 90% of men in their ninth decade The aetiology of BPH is multifactorial but there are two essential prerequisites: the presence of testes and ageing
  27. 27. Pathophysiology Prostatic hyperplasia increases urethral resistance, resulting in compensatory changes in bladder function.
  28. 28. The median lobe projects into the base of the bladder The prostatic urethra narrows The bladder shows trabeculation and thickening of the wall Benign prostatic enlargement
  29. 29. Thickening of the bladder wall Recurrent hematuria Bladder diverticulum formation Urinary tract infections Bladder stone formation Upper tract dilation Effects of Benign prostatic obstruction
  30. 30. Renal damage Renal damage from obstructive uropathy due to BOO (bladder outlet obstruction) is a feared complication It can happen in men with minimal symptoms and the renal impairment is not always reversible The risk of a man with symptoms of BOO developing renal failure whilst under follow up is not known for certain but is minimal
  31. 31. Bladder Changes Flow is maintained in the early phases of outflow obstruction, as a result of hypertrophy of the detrusor muscle allows an increase in detrusor pressure As outflow obstruction progresses, smooth muscle hypertrophy occurs followed by connective tissue infiltration and reduced parasympathetic innervations Impaired emptying results, caused by decreased compliance in the bladder wall and secondary detrusor instability, due to the previous events Ultimately these changes translate into the persistent symptoms of frequency, urgency and urge incontinence
  32. 32. Aetiology of BPH – principal hypotheses The molecular processes underlying the development of BPH are not completely understood, but androgens and age play a central role Several hypotheses have been proposed – Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hypothesis – Oestrogen-testosterone imbalance – Stromal-epithelial interactions – Reduced cell death – Stem cell theory
  33. 33. Aetiology of BPH – Dihydrotestosterone hypothesis Adapted from Kirby et al. 199 Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is the main androgen responsible for prostate growth. two isoenzymes of 5-alpha-reductase have been identified 5-alpha- reductase inhibitors suppress DHT formation.
  34. 34. BPH Appearance A characteristic of the gross appearance of BPH are rubbery yellow/grey nodules of variable size within the prostate gland The nodules are composed of epithelium, smooth muscle and fibrous tissue in varying amounts Ratio of Stromal tissue to epithelium in BPH varies and has been suggested to determine the symptomatology of a BPH patient
  35. 35. Pathologic phase of BPH Histological changes occur within the prostate but no symptoms Changes result as a consequence of a neoplastic transformation of prostatic cells The prostatic cells begin to behave like embryonic cells, budding off existing ducts These later organise to form modules of stroma and glandular epithelium
  36. 36. Macroscopic phase of BPH Not all men with histological BPH progress to the macroscopic phase The prostate becomes grossly enlarged and symptoms become apparent in some men As the amount of glandular tissue grows, the outer layer of prostate tissue is compressed This creates a tough capsule that forces the growing gland to form lobes The type of severity of symptoms appears to be related to the size and position of the lobes relative to the bladder and urethra
  37. 37. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Etiologic Theories Unclear Factors association Androgens, estrogens, Stromal-epithelial interactions, growth factors, and neurotransmitters may play a role, either singly or in combination, in the etiology of the Multiple factors – HORMONES Functioning testes (ANDROGEN INFLUENCE) DHT Prostate growth, maintenance of size and function Abnormal accumulation of DHT is the primary cause of BPH Estrogen/Androgen synergism
  38. 38. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Correlated Factors AGE TESTES – Smoking – Race – Diet – Body habitus – Sexual history – Vasectomy – Medications – Diseases
  39. 39. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Etiologic Theories Stromal-epithelial Interaction Theory – The stroma may mediate the effect of androgen on the epithelial components by production various growth factors
  40. 40. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Etiologic Theories STEM CELL THEORY – Abnormal maturation and regulation of the cell renewal process may result into BPH. – Hormones, growth factors and oncogens may affect this abnormalities.
  41. 41. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Etiologic Theories Static And Dynamic Components – STATIC: Prostatic bulk Stromal, epithelial and extracellular matrix – Androgen ablation affect epithelial volume – Therapeutic modalities to reduce the size of the prostate – DYNAMIC COMPONENT Alpha adrenergic receptors Obstruction by prostatic smooth muscle – Responsible for variation of symptoms – Therapeutic modalities that interact with receptors
  42. 42. Stromoglandular hyperplasia of the prostate showing glandular (upper left) and Stromal (lower right) tissue
  43. 43. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Etiologic Theories Aging, perhaps through vascular mechanisms, leads to further alteration in bladder biology that in all likelihood amplifies the effects of obstruction. Prostate growth is only one component of LUTS in aging men. Physicians tend to overlook the significant contribution of aging, bladder dysfunction, nervous system changes, and systemic disease that in many cases has more impact on symptoms than the size of the prostate.
  44. 44. Natural history The natural history of a disease process refers to the prognosis of the disease over time BPH Is slowly progressive disease Spontaneous improvement within(1-5y) – 18-32% subjective improvement – 15-32% no change – 16-60% worsening – Placebo response 20-40% – Watchful waiting: 42% improvement – Placebo/sham studies: 30% improvement
  45. 45. Complications Bladder stones UTI Bladder decompensation Urinary incontinence – Overflow – Detrusor overactivity Upper urinary tract deterioration and Azotemia – 0.3-30 % of patients with BPH Hematuria – Microvessel density is high in patients with gross hematuria – Finatstride and treatment of hematuria associated with BPH Acute urine retention Mortality
  46. 46. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Clinical Picture Symptoms Prostatism LUTS (not symptom specific for BPH) Irritative Obstructive
  47. 47. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Clinical Picture Symptoms OBSTRUCTIVE – Impairment in the size and force of stream – Hesitancy – Intermittency – Incomplete voiding – Abdominal straining – Terminal dribbling
  48. 48. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Clinical Picture Symptoms IRRITATIVE – Nocturia – Daytime frequency – Urgency – Urge incontinence – Dysuria
  49. 49. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Clinical Picture Symptoms The primary focus of initial evaluation and diagnostic testing is to establish that the symptoms are, in fact, a result of BPH. Nonprostatic causes of symptoms can be excluded in a significant majority of patients on the basis of history, physical examination, and urinalysis. Additional diagnostic testing is necessary in patients in whom the diagnosis is still unclear after initial evaluation

  58. 58. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Clinical Picture Initial evaluation Medical History – A detailed medical history should be obtained to identify other causes of voiding dysfunction or co morbidities that may complicate treatment. – Assessment of LUTS symptom severity and bother Physical examination – DRE – Focused neurological assessment Urinalysis Serum creatinine and imaging of UUT PSA (if life expectancy>10years, if the diagnosis of prostate cancer can modify the management and before treatment with 5α-reductase inhibitors)
  59. 59. Symptom Assessment The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) is recommended as the symptom scoring instrument When the IPSS system is used, symptoms classified as: – Mild (0 to 7) – Moderate (8 to 19) – Severe (20 to 35). IPSS is the ideal instrument to; – Grade baseline symptom severity – Assess the response to therapy – Detect symptom progression in those men managed by watchful waiting. IPSS cannot be used to establish the diagnosis of BPH.
  60. 60. Additional Diagnostic Tests Additional testing should be considered after the initial evaluation if there is a significant chance the patient’s LUTS may not be due to BPH. 1. Urinary flowrate 2. Postvoid residual (PVR) urine volume 3. Pressure-flow urodynamic studies 4. Cystourethroscopy 5. Imaging of the UUT: – Hematuria – UTI – Renal insufficiency – History of Urolithiasis – History of urinary tract surgery

  66. 66. Post-void Residual UrineVol (PVRV) PVRV measurement is performed non-invasively using Transabdominal U/S It can be useful in assisting with treatment decisions It should not be used alone to diagnose BPH Patients found to have a large PVRV should receive active treatment Otherwise they may be more likely to develop AUR or fail conservative therapy Although an increased PVRV may be indicative of obstruction More than one measurement should be made Variation has been known to occur between voids PVRV measurement can also be useful for monitoring: • improvement or worsening of BPH in non-treated patients
