Summary

This early study tests whether Tamsulosin, a drug often used for prostate issues, can help men aged 55 and older urinate on their own after thoracic surgery for suspected or confirmed cancer. About 46 participants will take the drug and be monitored for how quickly and completely they can urinate after surgery. The goal is to reduce the need for catheters or other interventions.
