Abstract:

Prostatitis is a common problem in elderly. Prostatitis is causd by implantation of gram negative organism by direct route or lymphohematogenous route, instrumentation, inoculation of BCG for bladder cancer & occasionally as a part of military tuberculosis involving genitourinary system. Prostatitis can lead to different clinical symptoms like fever, chill, UTI, low back pain, erectile dysfunction and sometimes in long standing cases can lead to BPH & Pca. Diagnosis of prostatitis specially that of chronic abacterial prostatitis may be sometimes difficult and this can create a problem for the patient &the physician. So there is need to identify early molecular markers apart from routine microscopical, culture & sensitivity on prostatic smear and radiology & imaging and biopsy tests. The present review article is based on search on different web site, Pubmed, online journals describe recent update on different types of prostatitis,its etiopathogenesis, role in the development of BPH & Pca and early molecular makers. These will lead to a better understanding on prostatitis,open some more research avenues and help in defining better management strategies.
