Urinary Retention

With so many treatment options for bladder outlet obstruction, how do you select the best approach for each patient? On this episode of BackTable Urology, host Dr. Jose Silva is joined by Dr. John DiBianco for a practical discussion on evaluating lower urinary tract symptoms and matching patients with the right intervention. They emphasize confirming that symptoms are truly due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) before proceeding, and walk through triggers for intervention, including quality-of-life impact, UTIs, renal impairment, high post-void residual, bladder stones, and retention.
