Abstract: Balloon catheter dilatation of the prostate (BCDP) was performed in 25 patients with prostatic hypertrophy. All patients suffered from dysuria or urinary retention. Follow-up for 8-14 months showed that 20 patients had satisfactory results. The balloon catheter of 25 mm x 50 mm was inflated at 4-6 atm for 10-15 minutes. BCDP was modified for the use in the local hospitals.
