OBJECTIVE: Redefine the meaning of the old term "giant adenoma" and evaluate the diagnosis and safest method of treatment of such cases. METHOD: The world literature was reviewed, particularly concerning diagnostic approaches and therapeutic techniques. RESULTS: The open surgery technique appears to be the safest in the treatment of giant adenoma. CONCLUSIONS: We recommend further study of the factors affecting growth of giant prostatic adenoma.
