Significance of Prostatic Weight in Prostatism
Urologia Internationalis, 1983In addition to routine evaluation, 68 patients with prostatism underwent blinded urodynamic testing prior to transurethral prostatectomy and were reexamined symptomatologically and urodynamically at 3 and 12 months after surgery to determine if prostatic weight could predict postoperative outcome.

We quantified the burden of prostatitis in the United States by identifying trends in the use of health care resources and estimating the economic impact of the disease.The analytical methods used to generate these results were described previously.The rate of national inpatient hospitalizations for a diagnosis of prostatitis decreased by 21% between ...

Prostatic Fluid Inflammation in Prostatitis
Journal of Urology, 1994We studied expressed prostatic secretions from 106 patients with prostatitis to determine the longitudinal course of prostatic fluid inflammation. Prostatic fluid specimens were collected from 14 patients with acute bacterial, 13 with chronic bacterial and 79 with abacterial prostatitis.

The Microbiome in the Prostate: Prostatitis and Prostate Cancer
2019Novel molecular studies of the microbiota of the prostate has revealed a complex interaction between microbes and the prostate. Recent studies have shown that there is incredible diversity of the microbes that co-exist in the prostate. As well, the prostate microbiome is very dynamic over a man’s life: it may change seasonally, or with environmental ...

• The results of palliative treatment of prostatic carcinoma were observed in 1,249 patients followed for five years or more. The high incidence of this disease makes rectal examinations advisable in all men over 50 years of age. The shortness of life expectancy and the amount of suffering seen when the treatment has been palliative argue in favor of ...

Prostate cancer and chronic prostatitis
Current Prostate Reports, 2007Prostate cancer and chronic prostatitis are prevalent disorders in men. The cause of prostate cancer and chronic prostatitis is multifocal and diverse. Both disorders exhibit characteristic elevation of serum prostate-specific antigen, currently the primary screening test for prostate cancer.

Prostatitis and prostate cancer: Implications for prostate cancer screening
Urology, 2004Measurement of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels has become the most important single clinical test in the screening for prostate cancer. The possibility that prostatic inflammation (even in asymptomatic men) may substantially elevate PSA values is an important clinical problem, especially given the vagaries of prostate cancer ...

SUMMARYThe laboratory diagnosis of acute bacterial prostatitis is straightforward and easily accomplished in clinical laboratories. Chronic bacterial prostatitis, and especially chronic idiopathic prostatitis (most often referred to as abacterial prostatitis), presents a real challenge to the clinician and clinical microbiologist.
