Brain white matter (axonal) abnormalities associated with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome in women suggest that neuropathological brain alterations exist in, and might contribute
to, chronic pelvic pain syndromes. Advancing our knowledge of central neuropathic mechanisms, which might initiate and/or maintain these syndromes, will help target pain-related
neuroplasticity and identify future treatments. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access
