Nonspecific inflammatory lesions of the prostate are described and illustrated. The spectrum of inflammation in this group of lesions caused by exposure of prostatic secretions to, or their escape into, the stroma has not been fully recognized. Inflammation ranges from acute, through chronic lymphoplasmacytic to granulomatous. The pathogenesis is primarily a defect in the acinar or ductal epithelium caused by prostatic secretion. The difference between these lesions and infective lesions is emphasized. The term ectasia prostatitis is suggested for this group of inflammatory lesions.
本文描述并展示了前列腺的非特异性炎性病变。这组由前列腺分泌物暴露于基质或渗入基质所引起的病变中的炎症谱尚未得到充分认识。炎症范围从急性炎症，经慢性淋巴细胞浆细胞性炎症到肉芽肿性炎症。其发病机制主要是前列腺分泌物导致腺泡或导管上皮出现缺陷。文中强调了这些病变与感染性病变之间的差异。建议将这组炎性病变称为前列腺扩张性前列腺炎。
