A closer look into pelvic congestion syndrome

Global experts from United Kingdom, Germany, Turkey, Egypt and China will share insights about the pelvic congestion syndrome and take a closer look into diagnosis and treatment of PCS in Female and Male.

The pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS) is a complex condition associated with chronic pelvic pain (CPP) of more than 6 months duration and pelvic varicosities and / or pelvic venous obstruction predominantly found in premenopausal women (1). The exact pathophysiology of PCS is unclear and is most likely caused by a multifactorial combination of mechanical and hormonal factors including retrograde blood flow, venous hypertension and dilation of veins. Pelvic varicosities can also be asymptomatic, making diagnosis of PCS difficult.

Global experts from United Kingdom, Germany, Turkey, Egypt and China will share insights about the pelvic congestion syndrome and take a closer look into diagnosis and treatment of PCS in Female and Male.
