Prostatitis – practical notes to diagnostics and treatment
We use term „prostatic syndrome“ instead of the term „prostatitis“ recently. Ethiological agent can be found in only five to ten percent of all cases. European Association of Urology recommends classification suggested by NIDDK/NIH (National Institute of Diabetes, Digestive and Kidney Diseases/National Institutes of Health). Diagnosis of this syndrome is based on symptomatology and presence of leukocytes and ethiological agent in the prostate and in its secretions. Treatment of the most patients is empirical.
Keywords: acute and chronic bacterial prostatitis, chronic pelvic pain syndrome, asymptomatic prostatitis.
