Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are common in the population but are not solely due to benign prostatic enlargement (BPE), instead age-related detrusor changes and other common medical conditions are the causative factor in many cases. Despite this, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is still a significant cause of LUTS, and this chapter attempts to explain the current evidence for the causes, investigation, complications, and management of patients with LUTS.
