The aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of LiST retreatment for CP/CPPS patients.A total of 50 patients with CP/CPPS diagnosis who were previously treated with 6 sessions of LiST will participate in this study.The primary study parameter is the CP/CPPS-related pain complaints and it will be assessed by the NIH-CPSI

For 6 weeks, patients will receive 6 sessions with active LiST probe, 2 session per week. The ARIES 2 device by Dornier will be used with a treatment protocol: 5000 SW, energy flux density = 0.096 mJ/mm2 (energy level 7) frequency = 5Hz
The change of the pain domain of NIH-CPSI score from baseline to 12 weeks after final treatment.
CP/CPPS-related complaints will be assessed by the the National Institutes of Health Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIH-CPSI). The questionnaire designed to provide symptom scores for patients with chronic prostatitis. The index provides scores on pain (items 1-4), urinary symptoms (items 5-6), and quality of life (items 7-9).Total score ranges from 0 to 35 (higher values represent worse outcome).The index provides a special pain domain (items 1-4) and the score for this domain ranges from 0 to 21.
Time frame: from baseline to 12 weeks after final treatment.
The change of the pain domain of NIH-CPSI score from baseline to 4 weeks after final treatment.
