RESUMO
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To gain an understanding of current practices in the management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs) in the setting of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Including both medication therapy and emerging minimally invasive options including peri-procedure considerations, expected outcomes, and value-based considerations. RECENT FINDINGS: Medical therapy, primarily alpha blockers (ABs), and 5 alpha reductase inhibitors (5-ARI) remain the most commonly utilized intervention for LUTS associated with BPH. Several minimally invasive surgical treatments (MISTs) have emerged to provide efficacious and durable results, while largely sparing men from the sexual adverse effects of more invasive surgical options. The introduction of value-based health care has led to more cost-conscious medical care and is poised to influence the landscape of LUTS associated with BPH treatment. As the population-based and societal needs continue to influence medical care for men with LUTS associated with BPH, a paradigm shift in management is expected.
