Abstract

This work analyzes the data of contemporary scientific literature regarding the ectopic mineralization in the prostate gland , its pathogenetic features are considered. The scientific literature of recent decades gives grounds to assert that the processes of concrement formation in the prostate gland are influenced by many factors , pathological mineralization can be realized by different mechanisms. They include chronic inflammation , stagnation fractions in gland, reflux of urine from the urethra at intravesicle obstruction , malformation of prostate and seminal vesicles , specific inflammation, polymorphism of gene protein inhibitors of calcification . These mechanisms are interconnected , each of them may participate in the overall development of concrement formation in the prostate. In recent years , due to improved instrumental diagnosis we observe a significant increase of the number of patients, who were found with pathogenic prostate gland bioliths , which requires more detailed and in-depth study of the mechanisms of mineral formation in the prostate.
