Abstract
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common diseases of the aging men with bother some lower urinary tract symptoms. We aimed to study the IPSS correlation with sonological grading, to study the quality of life of patients with prostatomegaly and to study the IPSS correlation with Residual Volume (sonologically). Age, IPSS, Quality of life, prostate size, and Post void residual volume were assessed.Symptom score were correlated with the sonological grading according to the prostate size and residual volume. We studied 102 men, above 45 years of age. 47.05% patients had an IPSS score in the moderate range 8-19. Majority (58.8%) of the patients were treated conservatively, with moderate symptom score and grade 2 prostatomegaly (31-50 cc).
