Chronic perineal pain often stems from neurological issues, with Alcock's canal syndrome being a common cause. Diagnosis requires electrophysiological testing to guide targeted treatments like CT-guided pudendal nerve infiltrations.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Pain Medicine

Context:

  • Reports on 90 cases of chronic perineal pain originating from neurological causes.
  • Highlights Alcock's canal syndrome as the most frequent neuralgia, resulting from pudendal nerve damage.

Purpose:

  • To detail the neurological origins of chronic perineal pain.
  • To emphasize the diagnostic role of electrophysiological exploration of the perineum.
  • To present CT-guided pudendal nerve infiltrations as a specific treatment.

Summary:

  • Presents 90 cases of chronic perineal pain of neurological origin.
  • Describes Alcock's canal syndrome (pudendal nerve damage) and its characteristic pain exacerbated by sitting.
  • Discusses other causes including spinal cord lesions, sacral meningoradiculitis, plexitis, and pudendal nerve neuritis.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Underscores the necessity of electrophysiological studies for diagnosis and guiding investigations.

    • Impact:

    • Provides a comprehensive overview of neurological causes for chronic perineal pain.
    • Establishes electrophysiological testing as crucial for accurate diagnosis.
    • Supports CT-guided pudendal nerve infiltrations as an effective treatment for Alcock's canal syndrome.
