Acute bacterial prostatitis, an acute infection of the prostate gland, results in lower abdominal pain, flank pain, urinary symptoms and the potential for systemic symptoms like fever and shock. With a high mortality rate if left untreated, acute bacterial prostatitis becomes a true urological emergency, which if allowed to progress, may result in bacteremia, severe sepsis/septic shock and death. Diagnosis is mainly clinical with a detailed history and physical and laboratory evaluation to include a urinalysis. However, imaging may be necessary to exclude other pathology. We present the case of a 44-year-old male with a history of well-controlled HIV that used a prostate vibrator for 1-week prior to his presentation to the ED. He was subsequently diagnosed with septic shock secondary to acute bacterial prostatitis and required ICU management.
急性细菌性前列腺炎是前列腺的急性感染,可导致下腹部疼痛、侧腹疼痛、泌尿系统症状以及出现发热和休克等全身症状的可能性。如果不治疗,急性细菌性前列腺炎死亡率很高,成为真正的泌尿外科急症,若任其发展,可能导致菌血症、严重脓毒症/脓毒性休克及死亡。诊断主要依靠临床,通过详细的病史、体格检查及实验室评估(包括尿液分析)来进行。然而,可能需要影像学检查以排除其他病变。我们报告一例44岁男性病例,其HIV病情控制良好,在急诊就诊前使用前列腺振动器1周。他随后被诊断为继发于急性细菌性前列腺炎的脓毒性休克,需要重症监护病房管理。
