Approche symptomatique des douleurs « prostatiques » chroniques et du syndrome douloureux pelvien chronique

Chronic bacterial prostatitis represents only about 5 to 10% of all cases of CP. The usual terminology of chronic non-bacterial prostatitis has been replaced by the term CPPS or CP/CPPS in men, in order to situate this disease in a broader context not exclusively related to the prostate. Despite its prevalence and its impact on quality of life and sexuality, CP/CPPS remains poorly known and continues to raise diagnostic problems.
