Baropodometry on women suffering from chronic pelvic pain--a cross-sectional study.

Background: Previous studies have associated chronic pelvic pain with a stereotyped pattern of movement and posture, lack of normal body sensations, a characteristic pain distribution. We aimed at evaluating if these postural changes are detectable in baropodometry results in patients with chronic pelvic pain.

Methods: We performed a prospective study in a university hospital.
