A clinical diagnosis of chronic prostatitis was made on 105 adult males who were subsequently admitted and investigated by Stamey localisation techniques, psychological questionnaires, urine flow studies, cysto-urethroscopy and prostatic biopsy or transurethral prostatectomy. From the Stamey localisation studies and cultures of the tissue obtained at transurethral prostatectomy a diagnosis of bacterial prostatitis was made in 50%, of which half were Staphylococcus albus and half were well recognised urinary pathogens. Other significant pathology was found in 25% and, particularly of note, were 2 patients who presented with chronic cystitis (biopsy negative) and subsequently developed carcinoma of the bladder. Also in this group were 5 unsuspected strictures and 5 patients with poor flow rates but normal endoscopy. Investigations in the remaining 25% were all negative except for a significantly higher incidence of neuroticism when compared with the other groups and controls.
对105名成年男性进行了慢性前列腺炎的临床诊断，随后这些患者入院，并通过斯塔米定位技术、心理调查问卷、尿流研究、膀胱尿道镜检查以及前列腺活检或经尿道前列腺切除术进行了检查。根据斯塔米定位研究以及经尿道前列腺切除术中获取的组织培养结果，50%的患者被诊断为细菌性前列腺炎，其中一半为白色葡萄球菌，另一半为公认的尿路病原体。25%的患者发现了其他显著病变，特别值得注意的是，有2名患者表现为慢性膀胱炎（活检阴性），随后发展为膀胱癌。该组中还有5例未被怀疑的尿道狭窄以及5例尿流率不佳但内镜检查正常的患者。其余25%的患者检查结果均为阴性，不过与其他组及对照组相比，他们的神经质发生率显著更高。
