Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of tamsulosin and Serenoa repens extract (SRE) in the management of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Patients and methods: We analyzed retrospectively aged 50 and older male patient’s urological data who received LUTS medical treatment due to BPH. We divided 80 patients into 2 groups with 40 patients in each group. First group were used selective αblocker tamsulosin 0,4mg/day and second group were used 160mg/day SRE in two divided doses. We found similar prostate volumes and demographic characteristics in both groups. We compared datas including International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), quality of life score, maximal urinary flow rate (Qmax), average flow rate (Qmed) and urine volume of patients before and after two months of treatment. Results: At the end of 2 months, in tamsulosin and SRE receiving group average decrease for IPSS was 5,1 and 4,2 respectively. Average increase in maximum urine flow rate for two groups was 3,6 ml/sec and 2ml/sec, respectively. Improvement for IPSS and Qmax values was statistically significant intra-groups but not for in between groups (p>0.05). We also found that quality of life score in tamsulosin and SRE groups decrease from 3,7 to 2,5 and from 4 to 3,1, respectively. Conclusions: This study suggests that both tamsulosin and SRE effective in the management of LUTS associated with BPH. Both medications showed similar clinical efficacy. However, further prospective randomized trials with large number of patients are required in order to explore the clinical success of phytotherapy in BPH

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı benign prostat hiperplazisi (BPH)’ne bağlı alt üriner sistem yakınmaları (AÜSY) olan hastaların tedavisinde kullanılan tamsulosin ve Serenoa repens ekstresi (SRE)’nin etkinliklerini karşılaştırmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: BPH’ne bağlı AÜSY medikal tedavi almış olan 50 yaş ve üzeri erkek hastaların ürolojik verileri retrospektif olarak incelendi. Selektif α-bloker olan tamsulosin 0,4 mg/gün 1x1 kullanmış olan 40 hasta 1. grupta ve SRE 160 mg/gün iki eşit dozda alan 40 hasta 2. grupta yer aldı. Her iki gruptaki hastaların prostat volümleri ve demografik özellikleri benzer bulundu. Tüm hastaların tedavi öncesi ve iki aylık tedavi sonrasındaki Uluslararası Prostat Semptom Skoru (IPSS), yaşam kalitesi skoru, maksimal idrar akım hızı (Qmax), ortalama akım hızı (Qort) ve idrar volümü ölçümleri retrospektif olarak karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Tamsulosin alan grupta ikinci ay sonunda IPSS’deki ortalama düşüş 5,1 iken SRE grubunda 4,2 idi. Maksimal idrar akım hızındaki ortalama artış ise her iki grup için sırasıyla 3,6 ve 2 ml/sn idi. IPSS ve Qmax değerlerindeki iyileşme her iki grupta kendi içinde anlamlı iken, gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık saptanmadı (p > 0.05). Bununla birlikte yaşam kalitesi skoru tamsulosin grubunda 3,7’den 2,5’e düşerken, SR alan grupta 4’den 3,1’e düşmüştü (p < 0.05). Sonuç: BPH ilişkili AÜSY’nın tedavisinde hem tamsulosin, hem de SRE’nin anlamlı derecede etkin olduğu, ancak her iki ilacın birbirine üstünlüğü olmadığı görülmüştür. Bununla birlikte fitoterapötik ajanların etkinliğini daha net olarak ortaya koymak için uzun süreli, yüksek hasta sayılarına sahip, randomize prospektif çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır
