Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) occurs commonly in older men, with historical reports of up to 50% prevalence in men over the age of 50 years and increasing incidence with increasing age (1, 2). BPH anatomically compresses the urethra, causing increased bladder outlet resistance. This results in lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), which include symptoms of difficult void- ing (hesitancy, straining, weak stream, sensation of incomplete emptying) and irritable voiding (frequency, urgency, urge incontinence)
