Moreover, if at the age of about 40-49 years, it occurs in 11.3% of men, after 80 years it is found in 95.5%. The etiology of prostate adenoma (BPH) exists in the form of hypotheses and it's in many respects controversial. Objective of the research: to establish the most common somatotype of patients with prostatic adenoma (PA) according to the index of Tanner and Rees-Eysenck body index.
