The medical profession is certainly there for thousands of years, the first documented therapeutic methods being used since prehistoric times. Although to date there has been significant advance in this area, current treatments are not infallible, which means that in medical practice there are certain errors. Sometimes patients may interpret these errors as malpractice, accusing the physician with certain charges related to his work, or rather the lack of his work. In terms of ethical norms, the Medical College of Physicians in Romania’s Code of Ethics has been prepared in accordance with the Geneva Declaration issued in 1948 and has a complementary legislative role stated above, the purpose of regulating the fundamental principles of professional conduct for doctors. All these laws are meant to guide medical staff attitudes in clinical practice and are relevant in a medical malpractice case.

Benign prostatic impairments are a heterogeneous group of diseases that can coexist or be separate entities. Some of these conditions (prostatitis) are included in the pelvic pain syndrome, while the other is represented by the prostatic adenoma and its implications. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is histologically associated, in most cases, with the presence of inflammatory infiltrate at this level. Histopathological examination of the resected pieces and fragments of prostatic biopsy in many cases reveals stromal inflammatory infiltrate adjacent to the prostatic acini. (1, 2) In addition to the many factors involved in the prostate benign microbial pathology (E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia spp., Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter aerogenes and the great family of enterococci), there are numerous data in specialized literature, certifying the presence of viral genomes in both benign and malignant pathology of the prostate. (3, 4) Among them the following stand out: Papilloma virus (HPV), Polyoma viruses, cytomegaloviruses (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), Herpes Virus 8 (HHV 8) and xenotropic murine leukemia virus recently (XMRV).
