Abstract:
Summary. The third case of a culturally and histologically proven candidosis of the prostate in the world literature available to us is reported. Autopsy of a 59‐year‐old man with metastasizing bronchial carcinoma as predisposing primary disease revealed a local candidosis of the prostate in the left lobe of the prostate, without evidence of a Candida sepsis. Parallel and different aspects in comparison with the other two cases are described. Zusammenfassung. Der dritte Fall in der Weltliteratur einer kulturell und histologisch gesi‐cherten Prostata‐Candidose wird beschrieben. Die Obduktion eines 59‐jährigen Mannes mit metastasierendem Bronchialcarcinom als prädis‐ponierende Grunderkrankung ergab eine lokale Prostata‐Candidose im linken Prostatalappen, ohne Hinweise für eine Candida‐Sepsis . Parallelen und Unterschiede zu den zwei weiteren Kasuisti‐ken werden dargestellt.Keywords:

The prostate gland contains a higher concentration of zinc than any soft tissue in the human body previously investigated. In an extensive series of analyses Eggleton found the highest concentration in liver (245 μgm. Zn per gm. dry weight), whereas the mean zinc content of all our specimens of human prostate was 682 ± 70 μgm. per gm. dry weight. Carcinomatous prostates contained much less zinc than normal glands, and the amount of zinc in any given prostate was directly related to the proportion of alveolar tissue present.

The benign prostate gland proliferation is refers to the prostate gland weight above 50g,the age is bigger than 80 years old,merges internal organs pathological change and so on heart,brain,liver,lung,kidney,clinical is called high danger BPH. After my courtyard use prostate gland electricity cuts the technique treatment,the curative effect is obvious.

This article analyzed the relationship between sexual activity and the structural and functional state of the prostate gland. The biomechanism of hormonal effects during sexual activity was evaluated. The influence of hormones on the functioning of the prostate gland was analyzed. It has been established that constant sexual activity in moderate amounts reduces the risk of developing prostate diseases and is an important method of prevention. To correct copulative function disorders in diseases of the prostate gland, it is advisable to use prostatic peptides that have an organotropic effect.

This study sought to determine how often a medico-legal (coronial) autopsy contributes by identifying the source of infection when there has been a clinical diagnosis of sepsis prior to death. Autopsy reports were retrieved in which it was documented there had been a clinical diagnosis of sepsis preceding death. The autopsy report was reviewed to determine if a source for sepsis had been identified. It was found the autopsy was contributory in this respect in less than one fifth of all cases (35 of 198, 18%). It was also determined if there was a post-autopsy diagnosis of sepsis or if sepsis was excluded by a definite alternative diagnosis. During the study, of the 198 cases, sepsis was excluded by an alternative diagnosis in 78 (39%). Thus, the autopsy may be of more application to confirming or excluding a diagnosis of sepsis than identifying a source for sepsis.

The article presents the results of studying the morphometric parameters of the prostate gland in children in early postnatal ontogenesis according to ultrasound data. On the basis of the data obtained, the growth rates of organometric parameters of the prostate gland of children in postnatal ontogenesis were established. The thickness of the organ from the neonatal period to the second period of childhood increases by 1.81 times, the width by 2.94 times, the length by 1.91 times, and the volume growing by 9.42 times. It was revealed that the highest growth rate of the anatomical parameters of the prostate gland is observed by the end of the second period of childhood: thickness - 25.3%, width - 62.1%, length - 28.97%, and the volume of the organ increases 1.5 times. Thus, the growth and development of morphometric parameters of the prostate gland is uneven and depends on the age characteristics of the organ.
