Summary
At recent EAU meeting in Stockholm (Sweden) new data were presented, clearly demonstrating that urologists treating symptoms associated with lower urinary tract syndrome focus too much on voiding (obstructive) symptoms while neglecting filling (irritating) symptoms, which might have substantially larger negative impact on patient quality of life. Results of NEPTUNE II Study show, that combination therapy of this condition is effective and well tolerated when used both short- and long-term.
Key words:
lower urinary tract syndrome, filling symptoms, voiding symptoms, hyperactive bladder
