An enlarged prostate gland can cause uncomfortable urinary symptoms, such as blocking the flow of urine out of the bladder. It can also cause bladder, urinary tract or kidney problems....

Case Summary

  • The prostate gland, a walnut-sized organ in the male reproductive system, sits anterior to the rectum and contributes about 70% of seminal fluid.
