Description

  • Provides a holistic view on chronic pelvic pain
  • Describes the relationship between chronic pelvic pain and pelvic floor dysfunctions
  • Proposes an original standardized approach to chronic pelvic pain to address the diagnosis and treatment of the disease
  • Describes the most recent therapies for chronic pelvic pain through a multidisciplinary approach

This book provides readers with a holistic approach to chronic pelvic pain which is an extremely complex condition with associated pelvic dysfunctions. This approach significantly facilitates and accelerates the clinical assessment and subsequent follow-up. 

The pathophysiologic mechanisms involving  the nervous system, the pelvic organs and the pelvic floor are discussed,  deepening the possible implications on mind, sexuality and pelvic dysfunctions.

Evaluation and diagnosis are examined for different types of syndromes. Moreover, since the Bladder Pain Syndrome and the Interstitial Cystitis are main causes of  pelvic pain, an original diagnostic approach is proposed specifically for these conditions. In order to deliver the best clinical outcomes, this new system provides a multidisciplinary approach, both in the diagnostic phase and in the therapeutic phase

The most recent therapies for chronic pelvic pain following a multidisciplinary approach are described in detail. 

Due to its practice-oriented contents, the book will greatly benefit all professionals dealing with this debilitating disease, supporting them in their daily clinical routine.
