ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the diagnosis and the treatment of male interstitial cystitis (IC) to improve the efficiency.MethodsEighteen cases of IC male patients treated from Jan 2010 to Dec 2010 who suffered from suprapnbic pain urinary frequency and urgency were analyzed retrospectively.All these patients were misdiagnosed as category Ⅲ chronic prostatitis.According to the NIDDK diagnostic criteria of IC,Pelvic Pain and Urgency Frequency (PUF) scoring,potassium sensitivity test (PST),and cystoscopy under anaesthesia were used to establish the diagnosis of IC.24 h urinary diary,routine uronoscopy,prostate fluid routine and bacterial culture examination were taken before the treatment of hydrodistention and intravesical instillation of heparin.ResultsAfter the follow-up 12 to 25 months ( average,19 months),the symptoms improved distinctly.The PUF scoring was 19.2 ±4.1 before treatment and 13.6 ±2.4 after treatment respectively ( P < 0.01 ).24 hours' frequency and amount of urination were (7.5 ± 4.3)times and (241.7 ±45.3) ml after treatment compared with (11.5 ±3.9) times and (159.5 ±30.8) ml before treatment ( P < 0.01 ).ConclusionsThe male IC and chronic prostatitis share the same symptoms.They can be differentiated by the IC diagnosis.The treatment of hydrodistention alone with oral tolterodine tartrate sustained release tablets and intravesical instillation of heparin can evidently improve the symptoms of the male IC patients.
