摘要
Men with lower urinary tract symptoms frequently do not seek medical advice. For those who do, the traditional view of a solely prostatic origin might hinder management, since growing evidence suggests an important role for nonprostatic causes. This Review clarifies terminology for symptoms and causes and presents an overview of the available medical therapies.
