dc.description.abstractObjective: We aimed to investigate the rate of deterioration of the renal function in patients operated for lower urinary tract symptoms, the relation between this rate and patient age, symptom severity, and accompanying diseases. Materials and methods: The data of 369 patients who admitted to our clinic with lower urinary tract symptoms and operated between 01/06/2001 and 31/03/2005 were retrospectively evaluated, and the examination findings and laboratory results have recorded. Results: The preoperative serum creatinin level was <= 1.4 mg/dL in 315 (85.4%) patients and >1.4 mg/dL in 54 (14.6%) patients. The mean age of the patients with serum creatinin level <= 1.4 mg/dL was 68.64 +/- 8.24 years, and that of patients with serum creatinin level >1.4 mg/dL was 72.56 +/- 7.96 years (p<0.05). The level of serum creatinin increased with increasing age, and the renal function was worsened with the increase of symptom score. Also, in the presence of the chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes, the rate of renal dysfunction increased by 2.5 times (25.5% vs. 10.9%). There was no correlation between postvoiding residue urine and renal dysfunction. Additionally, the renal dilatation accompanied the increase in the serum creatinin level. Conclusion: In the patients with with lower urinary tract symptoms, the serum creatinin level must be evaluated at the first admission for early diagnosis and treatment of renal dysfunction.en_US
