Objectives: To dene the diagnostic accuracy of intravesical protrusion of prostate (IPP), bladder wall thickness (BWT) and prostate volume (PV) in diagnosis of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and prediction of future acute urinary retention (AUR). A prospective Materials and methods: study of 127 patients, presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms suggestive of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) were enrolled with 50 patients among them manifesting AUR. 35 normal persons were selected as control group. After inclusion, all patients underwent transabdominal ultrasound and pressure ow urodynamic study (UDS). UDS parameter, BOO index (BOOI) were used as a reference standard for stratifying the patients into two groups, BOO and non-BOO. The sono-morphological parameters, IPP, BWT and PV were used to compare between these two groups with calculating the diagnostic accuracy for each individual index. IPP, BWT Results: and PV had statistically signicant difference between group 1 (BOOI < 40) and 2 ( BOOI > 40) with strong correlation with BOOI. The Pearson's correlation coefcient (r) for IPP, BWT and PV were 0.762, 0.702 and 0.660 respectively. The AUC for IPP, BWT and PV were 0.824, 0.786 and 0.650 with highest accuracy for IPP (79.2%) at cutoff value of 7 mm. Using the same threshold value, IPP had higher statistical difference than BWT in predicting AUR with similar diagnostic accuracy of IPP and BWT together. IPP and BWT in conjunction with PV in place Conclusions: of UDS had good clinical utility in diagnosis of BOO due to BPH and future AUR prediction.

Introduction: According to previous studies, aging, gender, bladder volume and pathological states, such as bladder outflow obstruction, affect bladder wall thickness (BWT). The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between BWT and the International Prostatic Symptom Score (IPSS) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) before and after tamsulosin treatment.Methods: In this study, 60 BPH patients were included. After obtaining informed consent, data were gathered using questionnaires to determine IPSS. After that, prostate-specific antigen was measured and a clinical examination, including a digital rectal examination, was performed for all patients. BWT was determined by transabdominal ultrasound. Finally, all patients were treated with tamsulosin (0.4 mg/day) for 2 months. After completing treatment, the IPSS and BWT were measured again and compared with the initial findings.Results: In total, 44 patients completed treatment. Patients aged 61.7 ± 9.2 years old. The mean ± standard deviation of IPSS and BWT were 14.6 ± 5.0 and 5.36 ± 1.28 mm before treatment, while they significantly (p < 0.0001) decreased to 8.2 ± 4.7 and 4.69 ± 1.23 mm, respectively, after treatment. Chi-square test showed that the decrease in BWT was significantly correlated with the improvement in IPSS (p = 0.002; r = 0.449).Conclusion: After treatment with tamsulosin, patients experienced a reduction in their BWT which was significantly correlated with improvement in their IPSS. We conclude that transabdominal evaluation of BWT could be included in the follow-up assessment in BPH.
