Presentation
Of the 53 patients presented with irritative symptoms, 33 showed detrusor instability(62%); Of the 43 patients mainly presented with obstructive symptoms, only 12(28%) showed detrusor instability. [koreamed.org]
We suggest that no routine pre-operative imaging need be performed in patients presenting with prostatism. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
He was on regular follow-up with no evidence of disease till 32 months when he presented in emergency with altered sensorium and urinary retention. [cancerjournal.net]
Workup
The etiological workup for the patient, who did not have any disease and was not on any medication, included blood (full blood, urea, creatinine, prostate-specific antigen, sedimentation, CRP) and urine examination (full urine), urological examination [dusunenadamdergisi.org]
In addition, peak urinary flow, voided volume, and symptoms may worsen over time in men with untreated BPH (see Workup). The risk of AUR and the need for corrective surgery increases with age. [emedicine.medscape.com]
For example, a male transplant patient could have two to three UTIs before a urologic workup yields a diagnosis of BPH. [cjasn.asnjournals.org]
X-Ray
- Small Kidney
Abnormalities found in 18 cases included dilatation of the excretory system, urinary calculi, congenital anomaly, acquired small kidney, renal cysts and retroperitoneal fibrosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
RESULTS: Although IPSS significantly decreased in the 2nd week of the treatment compared to pre-treatment value, it reached a maximum decrease in the 6th week of the treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
The prognosis depends mainly on patients' age, histological classification, tumor stage, and type of infiltration (primary or secondary), rather than the modality of treatment. [2] This case is worth reporting because of the rarity as well as probable [cancerjournal.net]
Prognosis Community- and practice-based studies suggest that men with LUTS can expect slow progression of symptoms. However, symptoms can wax and wane without treatment. [aafp.org]
Experimental treatments Ethanol injections and botulinum toxin injections are currently being explored as potential treatments for LUTS in patients with benign prostatic obstruction. [ 2 ] Prognosis [ 2 ] Studies suggest that few patients in a WW programme [patient.info]

Prognosis In the past, chronic end-stage BOO often led to renal failure and uremia. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Etiology
PURPOSE: We determined the incidence of voiding symptoms, urodynamic etiology and satisfaction with therapy in a large cohort of men with prostatism during a 12-year period. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Involvement of the central nervous system is the most constant feature of systemic torulosis and is usually the cause of death. 1 The advent of an effective and specific therapeutic agent, amphotericin B, has made the establishment of an etiologic diagnosis [nejm.org]
Epidemiology
BACKGROUND: In epidemiological studies, non-response may raise the question of generalizability to the target population. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Thus patients with LUTS need a well-planned assessment of disease process and a clear cut understanding of the relevant pathophysiology and an orderly approach to diagnosis and therapy. [indianjurol.com]
