Laparoscopic Implantation of Electrodes for Bilateral Neurmodulation of the Pudendal Nerves and S3 Nerve Roots for the Treatment of Pelvic Pain and Voiding Dysfunction.

Abstract

Introduction and Hypothesis The objective of this video is to describe the technique for laparoscopic implantation of electrodes for bilateral neuromodulation of S3 and pudendal nerves. We report a successful case of a 48-year-old woman with spina bifida occulta referred with a 14-year history of intense acyclic pelvic pain, urinary hesitancy, and intermittent flow refractory to various conservative measures.
