ABSTRACT
Chronic pelvic pain is a challenging disease with different presenting symptoms, which may include voiding dysfunction, urine retention, constipation, dyschezia, and/or dyspareunia. This article reviews the surgical anatomy of the pelvic nervous system and describes the theories proposed to explain the pathophysiology of pelvic pain syndrome. We also provide an overview of the causes of voiding dysfunction after pelvic surgery and the preventive and treatment modalities for postoperative pelvic pain.
KEYWORDS
Pelvic pain - pelvic surgery - pre-emptive analgesia - neurostimulation
