Single system orthotopic ureteroceles often present in adulthood are associated with characteristic radiographic findings. We present the case of a 54 year old woman with 8 months of urgency/frequency and pelvic pain that has the cystoscopic appearance of a bladder tumor. Cystoscopic images,
The intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH) or Masson's tumor is an unusual and rare benign disease.It is histologically characterized by papillary and anastomosing channel-like structures lined by proliferating e n dothelium. Radiologically, it is usually presented as a heterogenic
BACKGROUND
Chronic pelvic pain and sexual dysfunction are adverse effects of treatment of cervical cancer. Surgery and radiation therapies may result in soft tissue pain and dysfunction, including spasms and trigger points of the pelvic floor muscles that result in pain. In addition to physical
OBJECTIVE
To study the possible involvement of viruses in chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) using polymerase chain reaction. Among other factors, the involvement of viruses in CPPS has been speculated, but few studies have investigated this.
METHODS
Consecutive patients with localized prostate
Background: Chronic pain secondary to treatment in cancer survivors without tumor evidence is not unusual. Its management often requires specific approaches that are different from those applied for cancer patients with advanced disease and short life expectancy. Some studies have described
Prostate cancer and prostatitis are both significant health concerns. A large number of studies have established that the occurrence of the two is closely related. However, the most common prostatitis, type III chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndromes (CP/CPPS), is reported to not correlate
Cancer-related abdominal and pelvic pain syndromes can be debilitating and difficult to treat. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of superior hypogastric plexus blockade or neurolysis (SHPN) for the treatment of cancer-related pelvic OBJECTIVE
Neurolytic superior hypogastric plexus block has been shown to be safe and effective in selected cancer patients. A large cohort of patients was studied to evaluate the continued efficacy and safety of this block in cancer patients with advanced disease.
METHODS
A total of 227 pelvic pain
BACKGROUND
Chronic pelvic pain (persisting pain in hips, groins or lower back) is poorly described in studies of cervical cancer survivors (CCSs). The aims of this study were to describe chronic pelvic pain and associated variables in CCSs surveyed >5 years post-radiotherapy, and to compare the
Twenty-six patients with extensive gynecologic, colorectal or genitourinary cancer who suffered uncontrolled, incapacitating pelvic pain were enrolled in this study during a 1-year period. All the patients receiving oral opioids who developed poor pain response due to the progression of disease or
BACKGROUND
The etiology of chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) remains obscure. Although, bacterial etiology has frequently been suggested, evidence of both bacterial involvement in CPPS and the presence of normal bacterial flora in the prostate remain uncertain.
METHODS
We investigated the presence
Some guidelines on care for transgender men taking testosterone recommend oophorectomy to prevent ovarian cancer, while others recommend following guidelines for females. A review of the literature finds no strong evidence that transgender men are at increased risk for ovarian cancer. In transgender
