SummaryNo conflict of interest declared.Up till now the exact pathophysiology of BPH is still poorly understood and different theories have emerged and changed over the past years. Some studies reported that the prostate volume does not correlate with the clinical LUTS and/or the degree of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) (2, 3), and other studies discussed several anatomical factors that may explain the clinical effect of BPH such as intravesical prostatic protrusion (IPP), transition zone volume (TZV), transition zone index (TZI) and presumed circle area ratio (4-9). Recently, Cho et al. introduced the term prostatic-urethral angulation (PUA) as a new measurement that could be a causal factor for BPH (10), and in their subsequent preliminary clinical study using the fluid dynamic model, they reported that the urinary flow rate decreased by more than 27% as the PUA increased from 35° to 90° (11). Patients with PUA ≥ 35° had larger prostate volume and higher BOO index, in comparison with those who had PUA < 35° (12). Further studies showed that the PUA is significantly associated with maximum flow rate (Qmax) and voiding symptom scores in men with . In terms of medical therapy for BPH several drugs are widely distributed in the market and selective α1-blocker is the recommended treatment (15). Tamsulosin hydrochloride is a highly selective α1A-blocker that is currently used and proved to be effective and safe in treatment of symptomatic BPH alone or in combination with other drugs (16). The effect of PUA on the treatment outcome of tamsulosin hydrochloride on men with LUTS was first evaluated and PUA was inversely correlated with changes in Qmax and symptoms score after treatment (17). The aim of the present study is to evaluate the clinical outcome of medical treatment (by selective α1A-blocker) on male patients presented with LUTS/BPH and its correlation to the degree of PUA.
