Hematospermia in clinical practice
Abstract
Hematospermia (hemospermia) is an admixture of blood in semen (HMS). The article analyzes the frequency of the disease, manifestations, diagnostic capabilities for determining the cause, and treatment tactics. It is emphasized that GMS is not always a symptom of a malignant prostate tumor. In patients under 40 years of age, HMS is more often a consequence of inflammatory diseases; in patients over 40 years of age, these are iatrogenic causes (puncture biopsy of the prostate gland, radiation therapy, taking various medications, etc.). To exclude a prostate tumor, cystoscopy, ultrasound, and MRI can be used. Prostate cancer occurs in this category of patients in 3,S% of cases.
