| description | Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are including an overactive bladder, voiding and storing urine. The causes of LUTS include infectious and inflammatory. In this paper we present a rare case of LUTS caused by scabies mites and could be the third case reported in the medical literature. A 12-year-old child came to hospital complaining of tenesmus, dysuria and hematuria several days ago.
