Lower urinary tract symptoms can significantly reduce men's quality of life, and may point to serious pathology of the urogenital tract. Bothersome lower urinary tract symptoms can occur in up to 30% of men older than 65 years. Uncertainty and variation exist in clinical practice, so this pathway gives clear recommendations on assessing, monitoring and treating lower urinary tract symptoms.</span></div> UR - http://pathways.nice.org.uk/pathways/lower-urinary-tract-symptoms-in-men ER -
