Surgical Options for the Treatment of Chronic Pelvic Pain
Journal Title: Journal of Neurology and Experimental Neuroscience - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Chronic pelvic pain (CPP), particularly pelvic pain among women, remains one of the most controversial and the least understood conditions that practicing gynecologists encounter on a daily basis. It is estimated that this condition affects up to a quarter of all women [1]. The purpose of this article is to describe current surgical management strategies and the success rates of the surgical interventions, in order to help physicians counsel their patients and choose the best surgical option.
