The incidence of the disease is 42% to 87% in different aged groups. Purpose: to improve the diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia without complications and with urine retention. 38 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia underwent transrectal sonography with estimation of blood flow by Doppler. Blood flow speed measured in subcapsular and paraurethral arteries with estimation of diameter and blood speed in veins of the paraprostatic tissue. Transrectal sonography showed the changes in the prostatic blood-flow, especially in case of urine retention.
