Background: To analyse causes of failure of medical management in benign prostate enlargement (BPE) in patients who undergo surgery following medical treatment and to elucidate parameters which warrant for early surgical treatment. Methods: Records of 747 patients who underwent surgery for BPE were reviewed for prostate volume, median lobe enlargement, post void residual urine, duration and type of medical treatment given for BPE. We used univariate and multivariate analysis to find out significant parameters for medical treatment failure. Results: A total of 601 patients (80.45%) received medical treatment for their lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), for a duration ranging between 3 months and 2 years. Statistically significant difference was found between age, prostate volume, intravesical projection, PSA and acute urinary retention with failure of medical treatment. Conclusions: BPE patients with failure to respond with medical management within 3–6 months and/or associated with large size prostate, intravesical projection and raised serum PSA should better be offered surgical treatment.
