Purpose of Review: Granulomatous prostatitis is a rare inflammatory disease of the prostate. It is challenging for the clinician because it mimics prostate cancer and cannot be distinguished from prostate cancer clinically, biochemically, or radiologically. Granulomatous prostatitis can only be diagnosed by histopathological examination. To prevent overdiagnosis and overtreatment, it is an important disease to recognize. Recent Findings: There are multiple case reports and studies describing granulomatous prostatitis. Summary: This review aims to give an overview regarding the epidemiology, etiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of granulomatous prostatitis using (recent) literature.
