    Author: el Din KE, de Wildt MJ, Rosier PF, Wijkstra H, Debruyne FM, de la Rosette JJ.
    Journal: J Urol; 1996 Mar; 155(3):1018-22. PubMed ID: 8583551.
    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: We evaluated the urethrocystoscopic findings and results of urodynamic studies in elderly men with voiding complaints. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 492 consecutive patients with voiding complaints underwent a standardized screening program, including transrectal ultrasonography of the prostate, urodynamic investigations with pressure-flow study analysis and flexible urethrocystoscopy. RESULTS: A significant correlation was found between bladder trabeculation and grade of bladder outlet obstruction. Detrusor instability correlated significantly with grade of trabeculation. Grade of obstruction showed a clear correlation with prostatic occlusion of the urethra and the presence of a middle lobe at cystoscopy. CONCLUSIONS: The findings at urethrocystoscopy correlate well with those of urodynamic investigations.
