Perspectives of treatment of overactive bladder syndrome

Overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) is a common disease of urological practice. Its treatment is extensive and includes both conservative treatment and medication and, after the failure of all these treatment, the surgical modality is indicated. However, proper diagnosis of the disease is essential for the treatment itself. Often, under the OAB, lower urinary tract symptoms are hidden behind benign prostatic hyperplasia (BHP), or, on the contrary, OAB hides behind irritative and obstructive symptoms of BPH. Medicamentous treatment remains the main treatment, and in recent years combination therapy has been very modern.
