Abstract
Once it is proved that a urinary tract infection originates in the prostate, treatment should focus on confining it there through continuous, low-dose antibiotic therapy. Although the prostatic nidus persists—since currently available antimicrobials do not cross the prostatic epithelium—the disease ceases to be a problem and the danger of secondary infection of the kidney and bladder is eliminated.Keywords
