Simulation of the interaction of prostate enlargement to the urethra and the neck of urethra bladder by finite element method

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.
