Abstract
General and endoscopic examinations of 25 patients aged 40-48 years with chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) revealed combination of two urogenital diseases: interstitial cystitis and adenomyosis of the second-third degree. The complex treatment including a course of lavomax immunocorrection relieved CPPS in 72% (18) patients, reduced the number of recurrences of chronic pelvic diseases in 16%(4) patients. The therapeutic complex proposed may serve an alternative to surgical treatment of adenomyosis of the second-third degree which is uncomplicated with posthemorrhagic iron-deficiency anemia, manifests with pain only and associated with interstitial cystitis.
