Hello and welcome to HCM.
Thank you for your query.
Once the diagnosis of a high bladder neck or primary bladder neck obstruction has been confirmed we then move on to the treatment. Which is divided into:
-Medical management: Alpha blockers have been found to be the mainstay of treatment
-Surgical management: Transurethral incision of bladder neck
Either of these treatment options can be initiated. I would advice the initiation of medical treatment followed by the surgical option, if the desired results are not obtained.
I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications. I would gladly help you.
Best wishes.
