Abstract

Referral centers for lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) play a crucial role in providing personalized and effective solutions for patients. In specialized centers, urologists can effectively select the most appropriate tailored intervention that balances efficacy, morbidity, speed of onset, patient preferences, and disease progression, and can also manage challenging cases. This patient-centered approach should become standard practice for BPH management.
