A study of 310 patients with prostatism who were not operated upon within a month following the first examination, was made in an effort to determine indications for operation in the patient with mild symptoms of prostatism. This study showed that long duration of symptoms, residual urine of more than 60 cc. and enlargement of the gland beyond Grade I are criteria for the necessity of operation. Palliative treatment is not always indicated. Patients with a soft, boggy prostate and those with more than a slight amount of infection in the prostate are benefited by light prostatic massage once weekly and stilbestrol given in doses of 1 mg. twice daily. Severe infection is treated by chemotherapy and bladder irrigations.

Review
Prostate disorders are commonplace in medicine, especially in older men, with prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, and prostate cancer being the most abundant pathologies. The complexity of this organ, however, turns treatment into a challenge. In this review, we aim to provide insight into the efficacy of alternative treatments, which are not normally used in conventional medicine, with a particular focus on nutrients. In order to understand why and how nutrition can be beneficial in diseases of the prostate, we give an overview of the known characteristics and features of this organ. Then, we provide a summary of the most prevalent prostate illnesses. Finally, we propose nutrition-based treatment in each of these prostate problems, based on in-depth research concerning its effects in this context, with an emphasis on surgery. Overall, we plead for an upgrade of this form of alternative treatment to a fully recognized mode of therapy for the prostate.

We report here a 70-year-old man with prostatic malacoplakia which is an extremely rare disease. This diagnosis was obtained from histological examination by prostatic biopsy because the patient was suspected having prostatic cancer on digital examination.

Review
The prostate is the seat of three major causes of morbidity: benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostate cancer and prostatitis, three conditions in which inflammation has been implicated. A state of inflammation of the prostate gland, originally incited by an infection, an autoimmune response, a neurogenic stimulus or another trigger may have consequences on prostate functionality. In fact, male fertility depends intrinsically on the content of prostatic fluid factors secreted by the prostatic epithelium. Taking into account that the prostate gland is the major male accessory gland that exerts essential functions for male fertility, a state of local inflammation can alter male fertility by either directly impairing sperm quality or, indirectly, by causing prostate dysfunction. In the present review, we summarise the current knowledge regarding prostatitis due to well-known infections such as Escherichia coli, Chlamydia trachomatis and other commonly identified microorganisms focusing on inflammatory markers detected during these infections and seminal quality and male fertility alterations reported. We also focused on type III prostatitis or chronic nonbacterial prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome, of unknown aetiology, in which inflammation of an autoimmune origin, neurogenic stimuli or another trigger have been proposed and fertility alterations reported.
