Abstract
There are a number of urologic conditions that may cause chronic pelvic pain. For example, recurrent cystitis and infiltrating bladder tumors provoke pain in the hypogastrium; pain due to an ectopic kidney has a somewhat higher localization, and the pain due to an obstruction of the distal ureter is localized in an iliac fossa and usually radiates to the lumbar region.
