dc.description.abstractIntroduction: The aim of this study is to evaluate the intensity of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with and without Parkinson's disease (PD). We also investigated the efficacy of tamsulosin therapy in the management of the subjective and objective symptoms in these patients. Materials and Methods: This study included 80 (40 patients with and 40 without PD) clinically diagnosed BPH patients treated with tamsulosin. International Prostate Symptom score (IPSS), quality of life (QoL), maximum flow rate (Qmax) and post-void residual urine volume (PVR) were determined at baseline and after the 3 months of therapy. The PD group also evaluated with Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). All patients had received tamsulosin 0.4 mg/per day for 3 months period. The relationship between PD duration and UPDRS and mean changes of IPSS, QoL, Qmax and PVR after tamsulosin therapy were also investigated in PD group. Results: Three patients (7.5%) in PD group were discontinuied the therapy due to the severe hypotension attack. Initial data of IPSS, QoL, Qmax and PVR were different between two groups (p<0.001). After tamsulosin treatment, LUTS improved significantly in both groups (p<0.05). Improvement rates of the IPSS, QoL, Qmax and PVR were significantly higher in non-PD group (p<0.05). When relationship were investigated between PD duration and UPDRS and mean changes of IPSS, QoL, Qmax and PVR after tamsulosin therapy, all parameters were found in correlation except PVR. Conclusion: Tamsulosin therapy appears to useful in PD patient with BPH. But its efficacy is changed with PD duration and severity. After all, tamsulosin therapy can be given to these patients group with close follow-up.en_US
