Prostatitis affects 5-9% of men, causing millions of US hospital visits. This review covers its causes, classification, evaluation, and treatments like microwave hyperthermia for prostatitis syndromes.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Andrology
  • Internal Medicine

Background:

  • Prostatitis is a prevalent condition affecting 5-9% of men.
  • It accounts for over 2 million annual hospital visits in the USA.
  • Traditional classification includes acute bacterial, chronic bacterial, abacterial prostatitis, and prostatodynia.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present contemporary knowledge on prostatitis etiology, classification, evaluation, and treatment.
  • To review the impact of the 2000 US National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases consensus conference.
  • To discuss novel treatment modalities for prostatitis syndromes.

Main Methods:
