AB  - AIM: To determine the relationship between inguinal hernia (and inguinal hernia 
      subtypes) and low urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostate 
      hyperplasia (BPH), that could be more common than we think. METHOD: The study was 
      designed retrospectively and was done in accordance with the principles of the 
      Declaration of Helsinki, including 100 patients aged > 50 years that were 
      divided into 2 groups: patients with BPH (BPH group) and patients with BPH and 
      inguinal hernia (BPH-IH group 2). In addition, the BPH-IH group was subdivided 
      according to 2 inguinal hernia subtypes; patients of BPH-IH subgroup A had direct 
      inguinal hernia (n = 25) and those of BPH-IH subgroup B had indirect inguinal 
      hernia (n = 25). RESULTS: There was no statistical relationship and difference in 
      rates between IPSS scores in both groups (p = 0.659) and there wasn't a 
      significant correlation between IPSS symptom severity and type of hernia, based 
      on chi square analysis (p = 0.104) Conclusion: We were not able to prove our 
      hypothesis that patients with inguinal hernia and BPH would have higher IPSS 
      scores because of voiding dysfunction.
