Aim: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of administering double-dose tamsulosin (0.8 mg) for treating patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who have not responded to the standard single dose of tamsulosin (0.4 mg) and are deemed unsuitable for transurethral resection (TUR) intervention.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAims: This study aimed to detect possible risk factors related to upstaging of clinical stage T2 organ-confined (OC) to non-OC (nOC) bladder cancer (BC) following radical cystectomy (RC).
Settings And Design: This was a prospective multicenter study.
Subjects And Methods: This is a multicenter prospective study including 196 Egyptian BC patients undergoing RC from January 2017 to February 2019 at Cairo University, Fayoum University, and Menoufia University.
Aims: The aim of the study was to investigate the relation between baseline prostate volume (PV) and the improvement of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) induced by tamsulosin monotherapy after 2-year follow-up in Egyptian benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients.
Settings And Design: This was a prospective comparative multicenter study.
Subjects And Methods: Three hundred and eighty-one BPH patients were included in the study from January 2014 to January 2017.
Objectives: The objective is to study the effect of tamsulosin within hours after the first dose and its prediction of the future improvement of LUTS.
Materials And Methods: From May 2016 until August 2017, 340 patients aged over 40 years with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)-related symptoms were prospectively enrolled; 0.4 mg tamsulosin for 3 months was given.
Introduction: Our aim was to determine the factors predicting the outcome of intraprostatic injection of Botulinum Toxin-A (BTX-A) in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)-induced lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and to evaluate its efficacy and safety.
Methods: Between September 2016 and May 2018, 45 Egyptian patients, with BPH-induced LUTS were included; the indication was a failure of medical treatment, unfit, or refusing surgical intervention. Measurements of prostate size by TRUS, total PSA level before and 12 weeks after injection.
