acute bacterial prostatitis

Acute Prostatitis

An uncommon (2/10,000/year) condition characterised by abrupt onset of prostate inflammation linked to coliform bacterial infection—e.g., Escherichia coli—as well as STD pathogens—e.g., Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Trichomonas vaginalis.
Aetiology/risk factors Age 20 to 35, multiple sexual partners, high-risk sexual activity—e.g., non-use of condom, anal intercourse, bacterial migration up urethra; cystitis; kidney stones; prostate surgery; haematogenous spread of infection; urethral instrumentation—e.g., catheterisation, cystoscopy—trauma, bladder outlet obstruction, epididymitis, orchitis, systemic infection.
Clinical findings Pain at the base of the penis, perineal and perianal, urgency, burning with urination, fever, malaise, penile discharge; other findings include chills, painful defecation and ejaculation.
Management Symptomatic; 4-week course of antibiotics.

acute bacterial prostatitis

Inflammation of the prostate, commonly associated with urinary tract infections caused by enterococci, staphylococci, or gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli. It often is caused by reflux of urine resulting from an anatomical abnormality. Patients present with fever, chills, urethral discharge, pain on urination, difficulty voiding, malaise, myalgias, and discomfort in the perineal area; the prostate is soft, swollen, and tender on examination.

The causative organism is identified through a culture of prostatic secretions and is treated with an extended course of antibiotics. Narcotics and antispasmodics may be needed to relieve pain.
