Abstract
- Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) refers to pain perceived in the pelvic region for over 6 months. It is described more specifically according to the organs involved. The diagnosis and classification of CPP are not easy because of the vague diagnostic criteria, variety of presenting symptoms, absence of diagnostic tools, and coexisting symptoms due to accompanying other diseases. This concise review aims to help urologists diagnose CPP by focusing on identifying urological pain.
