Prostatitis is an inflammatory process of the prostate, which continues to be considered one of the most common urological diseases in men under 45. Predisposing factors such as trophic, microcirculatory, and congestive disorders contribute to the onset and development of the inflammatory process in the prostate, as do risk factors such as the urethral catheter, urethrocystoscopy, endoscopic surgery for infection, and deterioration of the integrity of the urethral epithelium. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of chronic inflammation and fibrosis of the prostate on urodynamics and local prostatic microcirculation and to evaluate the efficacy of conservative treatment.
