AB  - Benign prostatic hypertrophy is the most frequent cause of cervico-urethral 
      obstruction in adults. The symptomatology is complex and varied, and includes 
      both irritative and obstructive symptoms. A number of methods are used to 
      evaluate-quantify obstruction caused by benign prostatic hypertrophy. A series of 
      tests are traditionally used to identify disorders caused by altered vesical 
      filling (LUTS) and the degree of obstruction (BOO). An analysis of the various 
      methods generally allows the most suitable treatment to be commenced. This 
      critical review aimed to identify the real value and specificity of each method 
      in relation to the possibility of quantifying the degree of cervico-urethral 
      obstruction.
