Role of Helicobacter pylori in causing repeated Reinfection from Oral cavity in Chronic Prostatitis
Journal Title: Archives of Surgery and Clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction: The refractoriness in treatment of chronic prostatitis (CP) could be due to repeated infection. This reinfection could be caused by Helicobacter Pylori present in human saliva. Methods: The oral cavities seem to be the important reservoirs for the reinfection. The transmission from these reservoirs could be stopped by avoiding contact between male urethera and saliva. Results: Three patients suffering from refractory symptoms of CP were advised to avoid contact between their urethera and saliva and were prescribed antibiotics. All patients had complete response.
