4. Urethral stricture, bladder neck contracture, sphincter abnormalities, urinary obstruction due to causes other than BPH, or other potentially confounding bladder or urethral disease or condition
5. Cystolithiasis or chronic hematuria within 3 months prior to study treatment
6. History of pelvic irradiation or radical pelvic surgery

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The primary outcome measure is the urodynamic reduction of bladder outlet<br /><br>obstruction. Cystometry and urodynamic pressure flow are studied by assessing<br /><br>the following bladder outlet resistance parameters: Schäfer grade, BOOI<br /><br>(Bladder Outflow Obstruction Index = Abrams-Griffiths number), and urethral<br /><br>resistance factor (URA; >29 cm H2O =obstructed).</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Post treatment IPSS, IPSS/QOL, PV, PSA are presented as means and standard<br /><br>deviations or medians (interquartile ranges) and are compared to baseline.<br /><br>Wilcoxon signed-rank tests or a paired t-test are used for statistical<br /><br>analysis.</p><br>
