ABSTRACT
In clinical practice, urologist often has to treat women who have various forms of dysuria that do not have a pathomorphological substrate and manifest by various types of urinary disturbances and pathological sensations in the urinary tract. The relevance of this topic can be explained by the increasing prevalence of dysuria, its recurrent nature and insufficient efficiency of routine urotherapy, including the use of an extensive armamentarium of drugs and interventions, as well as by pronounced discomfort and a significant decrease in the quality of life and working capacity in the socially active adult patients. Despite a steady growing of interest in this problem, most researchers use a variety of questionnaires and evaluation methods and receive extremely unreliable data that do not contribute to an understanding of the serious psychourological problem of a particular patient with dysuria. In this article, such cases are discussed from the perspective of an interdisciplinary approach using the qualification apparatus of modern psychosomatic medicine and relying on the clinical experience of leading specialists in the field of urology and psychosomatics. The introduction of a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach into clinical practice will contribute to adequate referring, timely provision of specialized care, a reduction of medical costs and an increase in the quality of life in a large group of patients with dysuria.
