Abstract

Prostate stands in close anatomical and functional relations with urethra, genital glands and other pelvic organs. Inflammatory process in prostate is almost universally associated with inflammation in other genitourinary organs as well as sexual dysfunction, abnormal spermogram, psycho-emotional disorders and, in elderly men, with benign prostatic hyperplasia. Sildenafil (phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor) is effective in the treatment of erectile dysfunction, testicular insufficiency and depression which may persist after the standard therapy of chronic prostatitis and is recommended as add-on to rehabilitation procedures after chronic prostatitis therapy.
