摘要
慢性前列腺炎 /慢性盆腔疼痛综合征是一种常见的疾病 ,影响生活质量。病因及发病机制不完全明了。尚无理想的治疗方法 ,更缺乏以循证医学为基础的处理指南。尚有许多值得商榷之处 ,如前列腺检查标本中白细胞的重要性和炎症的作用 ,细菌的重要性和感染的作用 ,白细胞及细菌和症状严重程度间的相关性 ,如何区分 Ⅲa和 Ⅲb型前列腺炎 ,抗菌素治疗的作用 ,为什么Ⅲb型前列腺炎无炎症而有症状、而Ⅳ 型前列腺炎有炎症而无症状。有关各型前列腺炎的病因和诊断治疗 ,尚需设计良好和大样本量的研究以进一步确定。
Chronic prostatitis (CP)/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) is a common problem of medically controversial condition that causes considerable morbidity and impact on life. Although there are many competing causes proposed, the etiology and pathogenesis of CP/CPPS remain unclear. The causative factors underlying the CPPS are not fully understood. The optimal management of CP/CPPS is still unknown. The guideline of diagnosis and management of CP/CPPS based on evidence base medicine is not yet established. Many problems are still not resolved, such as the significance of leukocytes and the role of inflammation in CP/CPPS, the significance of bacteria presence and the role of infection in CP/CPPS, the correlation between leukocytes/bacteria and severity of symptoms, how to divide the subgroups of CP/CPPS, the role of antimicrobial therapy in the treatment of men with CP/CPPS, why patients with category Ⅲb complain of symptoms, while those with category Ⅳ complain of none. Although CP/CPPS is now achieving greater recognition, well-designed studies with large sample size should be performed.
