Annotation | This clinical update, written for the non-urologist, aims to highlight the important concepts behind understanding and treating men with uncomplicated lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). In the last five years there have been important changes in preferred terminology and guidelines for managing men with voiding symptoms. In particular, the assessment of a patient's degree of bother is the most important factor when making management decisions for men with uncomplicated LUTS. Also included are some brief guidelines on prostate specific antigen (PSA) testing. (AKM). |
