Summary: | We report the results of examination, treatment and follow-up of 30 patients aged 25-40 years with chronic bacterial prostatitis. We used the method of local transurethral hyperthermia of the prostate ("Thermex" unit). This method proved effective as the period of remission in comparison with standard conservative therapy increased 2-3-fold. This treatment is indicated in patients with longstanding inflammatory process and in patients suffering from prostatitis with secondary disorders of potency. |
