“…Although the severity of urinary incontinence often decreases with time after RP [6][7][8], previous studies have demonstrated that 8% to 87% of patients still experience urinary incontinence at six months and 5% to 44.5% remain incontinent at one to two years after surgery [7][8][9][10][11][12]. Moreover, up to 50% of patients report some degree of incontinence two years after RP [3], even after pelvic fl oor muscle exercise intervention.…”

Developing after radical prostatectomy urinary incontinence (UI) is a major health problem affecting the quality of life of men. Urinary incontinence patients in their care and treatment purpose is to provide continence. In the treatment of urinary incontinence surgery, medication and behavioral treatments are used. For the purposes of behavioral therapy; increasing the capacity of the bladder function and is aimed at promoting bladder control. Behavioral treatments for incontinence; diet, exercise bladder training and pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is located. Diet is regulated by the bladder diary. PFME is first identified in 1948 by Arnold Kegel, which is aimed pelvic to strengthen the muscles of the base and are expressed in improving the urethral sphincter function. In the literature, in the treatment of incontinence; with drug therapy or surgery, it should be emphasized also behavioral therapy.

“…Predictive factors for postoperative and postradiotherapy LUTS are summarised in Table 2 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26. Known risk factors such as prior transurethral resection have been well evidenced, but probable risk factors such as central nervous system damage and/or cognitive impairment is less well defined in the cancer population but is essential in the assessment of LUTS.…”

Integrative review on the non‐invasive management of lower urinary tract symptoms in men following treatments for pelvic malignancies

et al. 2015

SummaryAimTo develop a non‐invasive management strategy for men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) after treatment for pelvic cancer, that is suitable for use in a primary healthcare context.MethodsPubMed literature searches of LUTS management in this patient group were carried out, together with obtaining a consensus of management strategies from a panel of authors for the management of LUTS from across the UK.ResultsData from 41 articles were investigated and collated. Clinical experience was sought from authors where there was no clinical evidence. The findings discussed in this paper confirm that LUTS after the cancer treatment can significantly impair men's quality of life. While many men recover from LUTS spontaneously over time, a significant proportion require long‐term management. Despite the prevalence of LUTS, there is a lack of consensus on best management. This article offers a comprehensive treatment algorithm to manage patients with LUTS following pelvic cancer treatment.ConclusionBased on published research literature and clinical experience, recommendations are proposed for the standardisation of management strategies employed for men with LUTS after the pelvic cancer treatment. In addition to implementing the algorithm, understanding the rationale for the type and timing of LUTS management strategies is crucial for clinicians and patients.
