Pelvic distress in the aged patient
Journal of the American Geriatrics Society
|November 1, 1975
Abstract:
Unexplained pelvic distress or pain was observed in the 4 patients of this report (3 women and 1 man), and also in 6 other patients during a 10-year period of neurologic practice. In each of the 4 reported cases, the discomfort was interpreted as sexual. It is suggested that this may be a valid entity and that, as with trigeminal neuralgia and postherpetic neuralgia, it is truly limited to aged patients. The mechanism, incidence and significance are unknown.
