Genitourinary Pain and Inflammation:
Diagnosis and Management
GU-ITIS is a compilation of expert creativity and opinion based upon critical review of the literature, consensus reports and the author’s professional experience. Inflammation and pain caused by infectious etiologies are presented by experts in urological and gastrointestinal fields. Pain syndromes specific to the pelvic floor or genitourinary system are discussed from several perspectives. The book also includes chapters addressing iatrogenic causes of GU inflammation. Management by means of pharmacological, surgical or alternative methods are likewise presented within the context of specific disease entities, as well as separate therapeutic chapters. Authors needed to confront the ironic lack of level 1 studies in their respective fields. Indeed the very nature of Genitourinary Pain may hinder this type of research, otherwise feasible for other diseases in which inclusion criteria and outcome measures are defined more objectively. This observation is both the reason and the inspiration for this textbook, the first of its kind.
