Giant prostate hyperplasia is defined as prostate hyperplasia with a weight greater than 500 grams. This condition is rare. We present the management of a case of giant prostate hyperplasia (541 grams on CT scan) with a surgical enucleated volume of 800 grams in a patient who presented with haematuria. An abdominal-pelvic CT scan was required to differentiate it from a suspected bladder tumour. This case was successfully managed with a favourable outcome following open transvesical prostatectomy, ensuring minimal blood loss. This case report and review provide an update on the management of giant prostate hyperplasia, with emphasis on the prevention and management of haemorrhage.

巨大前列腺增生定义为前列腺重量超过500克的增生。这种情况很罕见。我们介绍了一例巨大前列腺增生（CT扫描显示重541克）患者的治疗情况，该患者因血尿就诊，手术摘除的前列腺体积达800克。需要进行腹部盆腔CT扫描以将其与疑似膀胱肿瘤相鉴别。该病例经开放经膀胱前列腺切除术后成功治疗，结果良好，术中失血极少。本病例报告及综述提供了巨大前列腺增生治疗的最新情况，重点在于出血的预防和处理。
