PURPOSE:To evaluate the structure of the endopelvic fascia in prostates of different weights.METHODS: We studied 10 patients with BPH (prostates>90g); 10 patients with prostate adenocarcinoma (PAC) (prostates90g (mean=9.61%) when compared to patients with prostates 90g, which can be an additional factor for pre-operatory evaluation of radical prostatectomy.
