Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Dear Colleagues,

During the last few years, we have witnessed a significant progress in the field of male Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) from diagnosis to management. The goal of this Special Issue is to update the knowledge of the practicing clinician and provide a comprehensive collection of original articles, reviews, and editorials.

To this end, we would like to invite state-of-the-art reviews, including reviews of new technology and therapeutics, as well as original research in this field for inclusion in this issue. Examples include:

• New insights in the assessment of LUTS;
• Possible role of inflammation and metabolic syndrome in the development and management of LUTS;
• Occurrence and management of adverse events of medical therapies;
• Patients’ adherence to medical treatment;
• Reviews of surgical modalities and emerging technologies for benign prostatic obstruction (i.e., lasers, mechanical devices, new minimally invasive therapies);
• The investigation of the rapidly developing of mobile health and its potential use in urology to provide better care for LUTS.

This Special Issue aims to present the most recent advances in male LUTS, as well as their implications for future patient care. We look forward to your submissions!
