biostudies-literatureUnknown10(6)Lotti F<h4>Background</h4>Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) parameters are not standardized, especially in men of reproductive age. Hence, the European Academy of Andrology (EAA) promoted a multicenter study to assess the TRUS characteristics of healthy-fertile men (HFM) to establish normative parameters.<h4>Objectives</h4>To report and discuss the prostate and seminal vesicles (SV) reference ranges and characteristics in HFM and their associations with clinical, seminal, biochemical parameters.<h4>Methods</h4>188 men (35.6 ± 6.0 years) from a cohort of 248 HFM were studied, evaluating, on the same day, clinical, biochemical, seminal, TRUS parameters following Standard Operating Procedures.<h4>Results</h4>TRUS reference ranges and characteristics of the prostate and SV of HFM are reported herein.
