the bladder walls are normal but the bladder is poorly distended with a volume only of 85 cc, post void residual is 10 cc indicating a retention up 5 %. the prostate is mildly enlarged with a volume of 30 cc, it is grossly homogeneous with no nodularities but it has some calcification.
There are no pelvic masses
SUMMARYMild prostatic hypertrophy with a small retention in the bladder after voiding.
