Voiding pattern of men 60 to 70 years old: population study in an urban population
1Department of Surgery K, Frederiksberg Hospital, Kobenhavn, Denmark.
Abstract:
A total of 1,065 men 60 to 70 years old completed a questionnaire regarding the voiding pattern. At the time of the questionnaire 81 men had already undergone an operation for prostatic hypertrophy (postoperatively queried, group 1) and 29 subsequently underwent an operation (preoperatively queried, group 2). The remaining 955 men were not referred for an operation before March 1987 (healthy, group 3). Approximately a third of the healthy men accepted the symptoms of frequency, post-micturition dribbling and weak stream as not requiring special medical attention, while group 1 men had the same symptom frequency as the untreated men and the symptom frequency was considerably higher in group 2. Post-micturition dribbling was not a specific characteristic of prostatism.
