Comparative Evaluation of Relationship between Prostate Volume and Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms. Annals of International medical and Dental Research. 2019 Sep; 5(5): 14-162395-28222395-2814http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/189093Lower Urinary tract symptom (LUTS) is a common presentation among elderly male patients in urology clinical practice. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) have contributed much to the objective and quantitative evaluations of LUTS in terms of the elucidation of its pathogenesis and changes accompanied with treatments. Aim: The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between IPSS and prostate volume in patients with LUTS. Methods: This prospective study included 58 male patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The IPSS was evaluated using questionnaire and the prostate volume of each patient was then estimated by transabdominal ultrasound. Results: There is a significant relationship between IPSS and prostate volume measured through trans-abdominal ultrasonography. The Total IPSS increases with the prostate volume, as a significant positive relationship between IPSS total score and prostate volume was recorded. Conclusion: There is a significant positive relationship between IPSS total score and prostate volumeLower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS)international prostate symptom score (IPSS)transabdominal ultrasonography and prostate volumeComparative Evaluation of Relationship between Prostate Volume and Lower Urinary Tract SymptomsJournal ArticleIndiaAssociate Professor, Department of Surgery, Vardhman Institute of Medical Sciences, Pawapuri, Nalanda, Bihar.Assistant Professor, Department of Surgery, Vardhman Institute of Medical Sciences, Pawapuri, Nalanda, Bihar.Tutor, Department of Surgery, Vardhman Institute of Medical Sciences, Pawapuri, Nalanda, Bihar.
