The anatomy of the male inferior hypogastric plexus: What should we know for nerve sparing surgery [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the nerve supply to the structures in the male lesser pelvis and review its clinical relevance, especially during nerve sparing surgery. Three formalin‐embalmed and 16 Thiel‐embalmed male hemipelves were used. They were microdissected after repeated treatments with nitric acid diluted 1:10 with milliQ‐water. The

Relationship between the endopelvic fasciae and the inferior hypogastric plexus Activity Log [PDF]
The Inferior Hypogastric Plexus (PHI) is a difficult plexus to define and dissect, hence the ease with which it can be injured both in anatomical and surgical research. Defining its relationships, with respect to the endopelvic fascia (FEP), including its formation and branches, (Baader B., et al., 2003, p. 129) would facilitate their dissection. This

Inferior Hypogastric Plexus Block Affects Sacral Nerves and the Superior Hypogastric Plexus [PDF]
Background. The inferior hypogastric plexus mediates pain sensation through the sympathetic chain for the lower abdominal and pelvic viscera and is thought to be a major structure involved in numerous pelvic and perineal pain syndromes and conditions. Objectives.

Coexistence of adrenergic and cholinergic nerves in the inferior hypogastric plexus: anatomical and immunohistochemical study with 3D reconstruction in human male fetus [PDF]
AbstractClassic anatomical methods have failed to determine the precise location, origin and nature of nerve fibres in the inferior hypogastric plexus (IHP). The purpose of this study was to identify the location and nature (adrenergic and/or cholinergic) of IHP nerve fibres and to provide a three‐dimensional (3D) representation of pelvic nerves and ...

A new technique for inferior hypogastric plexus block: a coccygeal transverse approach -a case report-. [PDF]
Chronic pelvic pain is a common problem with variable etiology. The sympathetic nervous system plays an important role in the transmission of visceral pain regardless of its etiology. Sympathetic nerve block is effective and safe for treatment of pelvic visceral pain. One of them, the inferior hypogastric plexus, is not easily assessable to blockade by
