Chronic Non Bacterial Prostatitis
Conditions
Brief summary
TRUS guided injection of long acting corticosteroids in chronic non bacterial prostatitis patients who failed to response to medical treamtment
Detailed description
chronic non bacterial prostatitis is usually due to congestion combined with severe inflammatory process of the prostate, it is usually a recurrent bothersome problem, so patients who fail to response to classic medical treatment are expected to benefit from a strong anti inflammatory injection like betamethasone, which has strong anti inflammatory plus anti oedematous properties so limitation of this inflammatory process across the prostate is expected to relieve the patients symptoms
