pubmed:abstractText |
Asian men generally have smaller prostate gland sizes than their Western counterparts. Nonetheless, the prevalence of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) is similar between native Asian men and men in the Western hemisphere. The purpose of this study was to determine if the enlargement of the transition zone volume (TZV) relative to the overall prostate volume (PV) might account for the prevalence of LUTS among Korean men despite having "smaller" prostates.
