[Color ultrasonic angiography in evaluation of chronic prostatitis treatment results].
Fifty-six patients with chronic prostatitis were treated. Routine clinical examinations were supplemented with ultrasonic examination of the prostate via the transurethral access. In addition to the gray-scale examination of prostatic status, color Doppler mapping was carried out in order to evaluate vascular pattern and bloodflow in the prostate. The studies were carried out before and after treatment, which included routine therapy. Suppressed bloodflow in the central and peripheral zones of the prostate (more pronounced inhibition in the peripheral zone) was observed in all patients before treatment. Multiple-modality treatment stimulated function of the main arterioles, arteriovenous shunts were involved in functioning, and prostatic hemodynamics in general was improved, which promoted better delivery of drugs into the focus and eventually eliminated the inflammatory process.
