Learning unit contents
Urologic pathologies are highly prevalent and represent more than 10% of all reasons for consulting a general practicioner. They can occur at any age (e.g. urinary stones) or can sometimes be detected during the fetal period (congenital diseases). Urologic tumors are very frequent: 35% of all malignancies in man affect the urogenital area.
Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) may also reveal benign conditions: 30% of all men will suffer from LUTS due to the development of benign prostatic hyperplasia and as many as 10% of all adult women suffer from urinary incontinence.
