1 A New Paradigm for Bladder Outlet Obstruction J Todd Purves MD, PhD Division of Urology Duke University Medical Center Disclosures: None

2 5yo Male Healthy. Presents with some urinary straining and weaker urinary stream. History and Exam suggestive of early BPH Offer alpha blockers, 5α reductase inhibitor, deobstructing procedure He chooses medical therapy Obstruction persists 1 1 Jiang YH, Wang CC and Kuo HC PLoS One 13(2): E1974

3 Functional/Anatomic Bladder Outlet Obstruction Anatomic: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Functional: Detrusor/Sphincter Dyssynergia Elevated Denervation Fibrosis Chronic pressure, stretch Inflammation and hypoxia Irritative voiding 3

4 Ten year later: 6M Medical Management of BPH with Flowmax, Finasteride Now prevents with urinary urgency, frequency, difficulty emptying bladder and 2 UTI in past 3 months Considering surgical therapy Has 1 years of damage jeopardized surgical success?
