Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) has been suggested for relieving local perineal symptoms associated with chronic prostatitis\/CPPS. Despite several treatment methods, no causal or standardized treatment is available for CPPS. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety profile of ESWT for the treatment of chronic non-bacterial prostatitis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec002\">\n                    <jats:title>Materials and methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Studies were collected using four search engines (Pubmed, Cochrane, ScienceDirect, and EBSCOHost), on May 16, 2020; and assessed based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria.
