The prostate can be removed if it meets the surgical indications.

Can prostate gland be excised?

If the male has prostatic hyperplasia, resulting in bladder stones, hydronephrosis or recurrent urinary retention, transurethral resection of the prostate can be performed. If the male has prostate cancer, there are no contraindications for surgery, radical prostatectomy can be performed. However, if the patient has contraindications for surgery, such as acute prostatitis, uncontrolled heart failure, severe bleeding tendency, etc., surgery should not be performed.

The patient needs to go to the urology department of the hospital for detailed examination to determine whether surgery is possible.
