Abstract
BPH may cause physical compression of the urethra and result in anatomic bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) through two distinct mechanisms: First, an increase in prostate volume, termed the static component., second, an increase in stromal smooth muscle tone, termed the dynamic component. 3 BOO, in turn, may present clinically as lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), urinary tract infections, acute urinary retention (AUR), renal failure hematuria and bladder calculi. Patients presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hypertrophy in whom surgery was strictly indicated were enrolled as were patients with disturbing, drug resistant LUTS, in accordance with European association of urology guidelines. Patients IPSS symptom score were statistically similar in both the groups with p value of 0.098+QOL score were statistically similar in both the groups with p value of 0.537.
