Benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) is a common cause for bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in men. The pathophysiology of BPH is multifactorial and inflammation has been linked with progression of BPH and LUTS. The association between histological prostatitis found at transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and adverse post‐operative urinary outcomes is not clearly defined. Our aim was to evaluate the association between histological prostatitis and adverse post‐operative urinary outcomes following TURP procedure.
