RESUMEN
AIM: To evaluate the efficiency of combined transrectal ozone and magnetic therapy for the treatment of chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 142 men with CBP were included in the study and allocated to different treatment, including standard therapy for 6 weeks (n=40), transrectal magnetic therapy in addition to standard therapy (n=35), transrectal ozone therapy in addition to standard therapy (n=37), transrectal magnetic and ozone therapy in addition to standard therapy (n=30). Treatment results were evaluated 3 months after the completion of therapy. RESULTS: The most pronounced positive improvement in all evaluated parameters was observed among patients who received both magnetic and ozone therapy, according to the criteria of all domains of the NIH-CPSI questionnaire, IIEF-5 questionnaire, and based on the changes in prostate volume, maximum urination rate, residual urine volume and microscopic examination of prostate secretion. CONCLUSION: To achieve optimal results in the treatment of CBP, it is necessary to use both consequently magnetic and ozone therapy, in addition to standard therapy.
