Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are a common condition in elderly men. Male LUTS were once called 'prostatism' because LUTS in men were thought to be caused primarily by benign prostatic enlargement (BPE). The BPE is a common health problem that affects elderly men worldwide. The study sought to investigate the correlation between the trans-abdominal ultrasound measurement of the transverse anterior to posterior (AP) and transverse diameter of the prostate.

Produktbeschreibung
Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are a common condition in elderly men. Male LUTS were once called 'prostatism' because LUTS in men were thought to be caused primarily by benign prostatic enlargement (BPE). The BPE is a common health problem that affects elderly men worldwide. The study sought to investigate the correlation between the trans-abdominal ultrasound measurement of the transverse anterior to posterior (AP) and transverse diameter of the prostate. A cross-sectional method was utilized in this study. One hundred and twenty-six patients who presented with LUTS were used for the research. Convenient sampling technique was used to obtain the sample. Trans abdominal ultrasound was used to assess the prostate volume, prostate capsule, echotexture, anterior to posterior diameter, transverse diameter and the residual bladder volume. The prostate volume was measured using the formula 0.523(L x W x thickness) of the gland. The results and further conclusions will be found further in the book.
