dc.description.abstractBackground: Chronic prostatitis is a widespread urological disease, however, underlying pathophysiology is poorly understood and it is usually characterized with recurrences. Platelets take in charge in hemostasis, tissue repairment and inflammation. Mean platelet volume (MPV), is considered as a marker of platelet activation. The aim of present study is to find out the possible association between MPV and chronic prostatitis. Methods: A total of 40 patients with chronic prostatitis and 45 healthy controls enrolled to the study. Laboratory data of chronic prostatitis patients and healthy controls obtained from the computerized databases of the hospitals and platelet count (PLT) and mean platelet volume (MPV) values of the participants recorded. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between groups in terms of mean age and PLT count. However, patients with chronic prostatitis had significantly increased MPV compared to controls (p=0.004). Conclusion: Increased MPV should help the diagnosis of chronic prostatitis but, more studies with larger study population are needed to confirm our results.en_US
