Laparoscopic Outcomes after Normal Clinical and Ultrasound Findings in Young Women with Chronic Pelvic Pain: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is one of the most common chronic pain problems experienced by women, with prevalence rates comparable to asthma and back pain. However, it is poorly understood and causative pathology is only seldom found. We aimed to establish prevalence of abnormal findings at diagnostic laparoscopy in young women with CPP after normal findings at clinical examination and pelvic ultrasound scan.
