Abstract EN
Pelvic pain is a common condition which significantly deteriorates health-related quality of life.
The most commonly identified causes of pain in the pelvic region are gynaecologic, urologic, gastrointestinal, neurological, and musculoskeletal.
However, in up to 33% of patients the source of this symptom is not identified, frustrating both patients and health-care professionals.
Pelvic pain may involve both the somatic and visceral systems, making the differential diagnosing challenging.
This paper aimed to review the mechanisms involved in pelvic pain perception by analyzing the neural plasticity and molecules which are involved in these complex circuits.
