Description
The management of men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), commonly referred to as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is part of everyday clinical practice in the primary care setting. With the advent of safe and effective medical therapies, the majority of these patients are managed by their primary care physician. In order to maximize quality and efficiency of care, primary care providers must continue to gain expertise and update their knowledge regarding male voiding dysfunction. This In Clinical Practice book provides the physician with practical guidance to the assessment and treatment of men with lower urinary tract symptoms. The text is complete, and is presented in a succinct and practical fashion. Illustrations and tables are frequently utilized to highlight clinically important material.
