[Treatment of the chronic prostatitis: current state of the problem]

A review of the literature on the urgent problem of urology, which is therapy of chronic prostatitis (CP) is presented. Despite numerous studies dedicated to the prevention and treatment of CP, it has not yet been possible to reduce the CP incidence. Therapeutic approaches aimed at improving the quality of life are not always effective due to the lack of a clear understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of the disease. Leading Russian urologists recommend introducing into the complex therapy of CP a domestic drug from the cytomedin, namely Vitaprost, which causes a significant decrease in the severity of trophic disorders, inflammatory and congestive processes, improves microcirculation in the prostate, stimulates cellular and humoral immunity, all of which increase the effectiveness of CP therapy.
