Abstract
Study objectiveTo present the technique and usefulness of conscious pain mapping.DesignProspective, observational study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2).SettingGynecology departments of a university-affiliated hospital and a private community hospital.PatientsFifty consecutive women undergoing diagnostic microlaparoscopy.InterventionsConscious pain mapping was performed in all 50 women.Measurements and main resultsConscious pain mapping helped to identify foci of chronic pelvic pain. The appendix and pelvic adhesions accounted for a significant amount of pelvic pain in these women.ConclusionsConscious pain mapping helps to uncover sites of pelvic pain that might not be identified during traditional laparoscopy under general anesthesia.
