Abstract Background: Chronic prostatitis is hard to be identified in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients in clinical works. This study aimed to diagnose chronic prostatitis in BPH patients by noninvasive methods.Methods: The research was carried out on the BPH patients who received transurethral resection of prostate at Xinhua hospital from January 2014 to Jul 2015. Before operation, patients were asked for medical history and required to receive physical examination, serum sample collection including PSA, sex hormones, inflammatory cytokines, metabolic panel and transrectal ultrasonography. According to histological results, the patients were divided into 2 group of BPH with/without prostatitis. Logistic regression was used to find the risk factors of chronic prostatitis.Results: As a result, 181 men with an average age of 72.15±8.41 years were enrolled in this study, including 116 patients with prostatitis and 65 patients without prostatitis. The storage sub-score (9.24±1.55 vs 8.52±1.63, p=0.009), PSA (8.23±7.69 vs 4.92±3.84, p=0.005) and IL-2R (531.96±200.75 vs 434.11±153.54, p=0.001) were significantly higher in patients with prostatitis than those without prostatitis. Based on logistic regression analysis, the above three parameters were also the risk factors of BPH with prostatitis. The diagnostic model was calculated as: 0.317* storage sub-score+0.092* PSA+0.003* IL-2R-4.296. The AUC was 0.725. Conclusions: Histological prostatitis in BPH patients can be diagnosed by the combination of serum IL-2R, PSA and storage sub-score. Identification of chronic prostatitis among patients with BPH is beneficial for medical decisions, which can more efficiently alleviate urinary symptoms and reduce the risk of disease progression.

Objective To assess the safety and efficacy of prostatic arterial embolization (PAE) for elderly patients with lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to large benign prostatic hyperplasia. Methods Twenty-eight patients (>80 years of age) with prostate volume >80 mL were enrolled from October 2016 to October 2019. PAE was performed using microspheres and functional results were evaluated at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. The following data were recorded: International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), quality of life (QoL), maximum urine flow rate (Qmax), post-void residual urine volume, prostate volume and total prostate-specific antigen level. Results Selective prostatic arterial catheterization and embolization were achieved in 27 of 28 patients. Follow-up data were available for those 27 patients until 12 months postoperatively. Significant improvements were found at all postoperative time points in terms of the mean IPSS, mean QoL score, mean Qmax, mean post-void residual urine volume, mean total prostate-specific antigen level, and mean prostate volume. The overall complication rate was 46.4%. Conclusions PAE is an efficacious and safe treatment for elderly patients with large prostate volume; it may offer an effective approach for patients who are not candidates for open or endoscopic surgical procedures because of comorbidities.
