title: [Interventional therapy for the chronic seminal vesiculitis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the efficacy of transperineal seminal vesicle puncture under ultrasound guidance and continuous transcatheter antibiotic drugs instillation for the treatment of chronic seminal vesiculitis.
  
  
  METHODS
  Forty-two patients with hemospermia were treated from April 1988 to January 2001. Of them 35 patients with urogenital inflammation were treated by transperineal seminal vesicle puncture under ultrasound guidance and continuous transcatheter antibiotic drugs instillation.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Transperineal seminal vesicle puncture and continuous transcatheter antibiotic drugs instillation therapy was adopted for 35 patients with urogenital inflammation and the cure rate was 91.43%.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Transperineal seminal vesicle puncture under ultrasound guidance and continuous transcatheter antibiotic drugs instillation was an effective method for diagnosis and treatment of chronic seminal vesiculitis.
