Y1 - 2016 N1 - T2 - Tintinalli’s Emergency Medicine: A Comprehensive Study Guide, 8e AB - This chapter reviews diagnosis and treatment of abdominal and pelvic pain in nonpregnant women. Even after the possibility of pregnancy is eliminated, abdominal pain in women remains a challenging diagnosis because of physical proximity and overlapping spinal segment innervation and similar symptoms of GI, urologic, and gynecologic organ systems. Discussion of the pregnant woman with abdominal/pelvic pain is found in chapters 100, "Maternal Emergencies after 20 Weeks of Pregnancy and in the Postpartum Period," 103, "Pelvic Inflammatory Disease," and 71, "Acute Abdominal Pain."
