RESUMEN

To critically review recent literature on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in patients with Parkinson's Disease.A literature search was conducted using the keywords LUTS, urinary symptoms, non-motor, and Parkinson's disease (PD) via the PubMed/Medline search engine. In the literature, we critically examined lower urinary symptoms in Parkinson's patients by analyzing prevalence, pathogenesis, urinary manifestations, pharmacologic trials and interventions, and prior review articles. The data collected ranged from 1986 to the present with an emphasis placed on recent publications.The literature regards LUTS in PD as a major comorbidity, especially with respect to a patient's quality of life. Parkinson's patients experience both storage and voiding difficulties. Storage symptoms, specifically overactive bladder, are markedly worse in patients with PD than in the general population. Surgical management of prostatic obstruction in PD can improve urinary symptoms. Multiple management options exist to alleviate storage LUTS in patients with PD, ranging from behavioral modification to surgery, and vary in efficacy.Lower urinary tract dysfunction in PD may be debilitating. Quality of life can be improved with a multi-pronged diagnosis-specific approach to treatment that takes into consideration a patient's ability to comply with treatment. A stepwise algorithm is presented and may be utilized by clinicians in managing LUTS in Parkinson's patients.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) affects more than 50% of men by the age of 60 and 90% by age 85. Many of these men are not candidates for surgical procedures such as transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), stimulating the development of less-invasive forms of therapy. We studied the utilization of these newer therapies by urologists practicing in Minnesota. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An anonymous questionnaire was sent to 174 members of the Minnesota Urological Society, of which 58 were available for analysis. A case scenario was presented of a patient with BPH refractory to medical therapy. The options were traditional and minimally invasive therapies. The physician was asked to select whether he or she would offer each option and perform the procedure or refer the patient within or outside the practice. Statistical analysis was performed using chi-square and two-sample t-tests on Minitab software. The results were considered significant at P < 0.05. RESULTS: While 59% of the respondents would offer both minimally invasive and traditional alternatives, 10% would offer only minimally invasive therapy, while 29% would offer only traditional therapy (P = 0.01). The most common minimally invasive therapies offered were transurethral microwave thermotherapy and (55%) and transurethral needle ablation (33%). If they offered a form of minimally invasive therapy, the majority of respondents would perform the procedure themselves. Rural urologists were less likely to offer minimally invasive therapy (43%) than metro physicians (81%; P = 0.035). There was no significant difference in the use of minimally invasive therapies by rural and urban urologists (P = 0.409) or urban and metropolitan urologists (P = 0.119). Urologists completing their training between 1960 and 1980 were less likely to offer minimally invasive therapy. There was no significant difference in the likelihood of offering traditional versus minimally invasive alternatives according to the percent of managed care in the practice. CONCLUSIONS: Urologists closer to the completion of their residency training are more likely to include a minimally invasive technique in their treatment plan, while urologists practicing in rural Minnesota are less likely to offer minimally invasive procedures. Further emphasis should be placed on increasing the availability of minimally invasive techniques in rural settings.
