Men older than age 50 are at high risk for prostatic hypertrophy with complications that include:
A) Hypospadias
B) Scrotal edema
C) Urine retention
D) Testicular cancer
Ans: C
Feedback:
Benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) is a common disorder in men over 50; because the prostate encircles the urethra, BPH exerts its effect through obstruction of urinary outflow from the bladder. Hypospadias is a congenital condition in which the termination of the urethra is on the ventral surface of the penis. Scrotal edema is often the result of testicular disease or inflammation rather than prostate enlargement. Often the first sign of testicular cancer is a slight enlargement of the testicle that may be accompanied by some degree of discomfort.
