pubmed:abstractText |
Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are common in elderly men. Radical prostatectomy may relieve obstructive symptoms, whereas radiation therapy may exacerbate obstructive or irritative symptoms. Baseline LUTS rates are unknown in populations screened for prostate cancer (PCa). Thus, it is difficult to determine the changes in LUTS that can be attributed to PCa treatment. Therefore, we assessed baseline rates of LUTS in a PCa screening cohort and assessed which of the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) symptoms had the most detrimental effect on quality of life (QoL).
