Beyond the Prostate: Rethinking Male LUTS

June 17, 2026 • International Continence Society • Episode 103

0:00 | 1:08:08

In this ICS podcast, Dr Said Yaiesh is joined by Dr Wayne Kuang, Professor Craig Comiter, and Dr Shannon Wallace for a thought-provoking discussion on the evolving understanding of male LUTS. The panel explores the limitations of a purely prostate-centric approach, the growing role of bladder-focused thinking, the importance of phenotyping and selective advanced diagnostics, and how concepts from female LUTS may help shape future research and management strategies in men. The discussion balances emerging ideas with practical clinical decision making and real-world patient care.
