    (Düzce Üniversitesi, 2022) Alan, Bircan; Cemil, Goya; Utangaç, Mazhar; Dusak, Abdurrahim
    Objective: The present study identified bladder-wall thickness and, through the use ofARFI elastography, bladder-wall elasticity values amongst patients with benign prostatehyperplasia (BPH), then examined their relationship with the disease diagnosis andprogression.Methods: The study included 60 patients with BPH (patient group) and 50 healthyvolunteers (control group). All members of the patient and control groups were measuredfor bladder-wall thickness (BWT) and bladder-wall mean shear-wave velocity (BW meanSWV) values, as well as for uroflowmetry parameters. The patient group was dividedinto the sub-groups of mild-medium and severe BPH, according to the InternationalProstate Symptom Score (IPSS). The patient and control groups and their sub-groupswere compared amongst themselves.Results: Whilst the BPH group indicated a mean wall thickness of 6.3±2 mm (range: 3-12 mm), the control group yielded a result of 2.8±0.7 mm (range: 2-5 mm), which led tothe conclusion that there was a significant difference between these groups (p
