Abstract

|
|
The symptoms of Interstitial cystitis and painful bladder syndrome (IC and PBS) usually provocated after gynecologic disease or treatment, but gynecologist could not notice these disease because there are no diagnostic findings in urine analysis and radiologic study. IC and PBS should be diagnosed with their clinical symptoms, and exclusion steps for differential diagnosis of other confusable diseases are essential. These diseases are characterized by periods of exacerbation followed by variable periods of remission. The therapy for IC and PBS begins with extensive patient education and the goal of the treatment is not cure, but the remission of the symptoms.
