ABSTRACT
Chronic pelvic pain in women is a very annoying condition that is responsible for substantial suffering and medical expense. But dealing with this pain can be tough, because there are numerous possible causes for the pelvic pain such as urologic, gynecologic, gastrointestinal, neurologic, or musculoskeletal problems. Of these, musculoskeletal problem may be a primary cause of chronic pelvic pain in patients with a preceding trauma to the low back, pelvis, or lower extremities. Here, we report the case of a 54-year-old female patient with severe chronic pelvic pain after a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) accident that was successfully managed with image-guided trigger point injections on several pelvic stabilizing muscles.

Objective To study a new method of opening prostatectomy.Methods 71 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients were divided into three group at random;treating group:prostatectomy by transfixing inferior vesical artery and reserving posterior urethra(n=21),control group Ⅰ:Millin operation(n=18) and control group Ⅱ:cystoprostatectomy through superior pectineus(n=32),the clinical effect was studied and observated.Results All 71 cases of patients were BPH according to pathology reports.Treating group had lower incidence than that of control group in injury of urethra,bleeding after operation,the times of irrigation of urinary bladder,urinary incontinence in the near future,secondary bleeding,urinary tract infection,bladder spasm,urethral stricture,and so on.Conclusions Prostatectomy by transfixing inferior vesical artery and reserving posterior urethra has many virtues such as simple,soon to discharge,cheapness of medical cost,and easy to spread.
