Abstract
Xanthogranulomatous prostatitis is a rare chronic inflammatory condition and may simulate prostatic carcinoma both clinically and microscopically. Conservative treatment is recommended for xanthogranulomatous prostatitis, including the use of alpha-blockers and corticosteroids. Surgical options, such as transurethral prostatic resection or open adenomectomy, are reserved for patients who are severely symptomatic or who have failed conservative treatment.
