The purpose of this simulation is to investigate prostate enlargement affecting the urethra and the neck of the urethra bladder using finite element analysis. The simulation results showed that the change and the distortion of the urethra pinched by the zones of the prostate in cases calculated. Besides, the simulation interaction of the results between the central zone with bladder may help scientists develop a theoretical basis for the inflammation in the neck of the urethra bladder. Moreover, the simulation of flow in the urinary deformed by prostate enlargementis also studied, explanation symptoms of weak urine flow and repeated urination.
