The pros- study of llfo Cases of Perineal Prostatectomy. 133 tates in this group are not enlarged or at most very slightly so (cases87, 89, 101, 133, 137, 143). On gross examination they contain no spheroids, but the cut sur-face is rather homogeneous and apparently fibrous. These are nottrue hypertrophies, but represent a type of prostatitis. The prostaticobstruction is consecutive to inflammatory processes which produce afibrous h}^erplasia about the vesical orifice or result in the formationof an infiam
