Question

acute cystitis in the male is most often a secondary complication associated with which of the following?
hunners ulcer
urethritis
prostatitis
severe constipation
salpingitis

Explanation:

Acute cystitis in males is often secondary to prostatitis. Prostatitis can lead to urinary tract infections (UTIs) including cystitis due to the proximity and shared urinary tract structures. Hunner's ulcer is related to interstitial cystitis, urethritis is an inflammation of the urethra (less likely to cause cystitis as a secondary complication in males compared to prostatitis), severe constipation doesn't directly cause cystitis, and salpingitis is a female reproductive tract condition (affecting fallopian tubes) and not relevant to male cystitis.

Answer:

C. Prostatitis
