During the last two decades botulinum toxin has also conquered urology. Botulinum toxin reduces the contractility and sensitivity of the detrusor muscle and relieves pain. It is therefore a promising drug whose use in men also appears promising. The following article highlights the practical relevance of botulinum toxin for male lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). But first of all, a distinction must be made between use in male LUTS due to benign prostate syndrome (BPS) and use in cases of overactive bladder (OAB) alone. A differentiated diagnosis and treatment of male LUTS is therefore essential.
在过去二十年中，肉毒杆菌毒素也在泌尿外科领域得到了应用。肉毒杆菌毒素可降低逼尿肌的收缩力和敏感性，缓解疼痛。因此，它是一种很有前景的药物，在男性患者中的应用似乎也很有前景。以下文章重点介绍了肉毒杆菌毒素对男性下尿路症状（LUTS）的实际应用价值。但首先，必须区分其在良性前列腺综合征（BPS）导致的男性LUTS中的应用和仅在膀胱过度活动症（OAB）病例中的应用。因此，对男性LUTS进行差异化诊断和治疗至关重要。
