RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Currently, chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) is one of the most prevalent urological diseases, but due to the multifactorial nature of the disease and the lack of consensus on its pathogenesis, the issue of adequate therapy remains open. Since the vascular factor plays the major role in the pathogenesis of CPPS, we hypothesized that this category of patients has microcirculatory disturbances of the prostate. AIM: Detection of microcirculatory disturbances of the prostate, their correction, and evaluation of the effect on the course of CPPS. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study comprised 60 healthy, sexually active men with clinical manifestations of CPPS lasting from 6 months to 5 years. After a comprehensive examination, all patients received Afalaza 2 tablets twice daily for 16 weeks. At the end of week 16, patients were re-examined. RESULTS: In patients with CPPS, therapy with Afalaza resulted in a significant improvement in microcirculation in the prostate thus leading to the reduction of the severity of disease manifestations.
