Özet
Aim: Bladder pain syndrome (BPS) is a complex disease which causes cognitive, behavioral, sexual, and emotional problems. Vascular factors related to bladder blood supply may be one of the etiologic cause of BPS. This study aims to investigate the bladder blood flow and internal iliac artery resistive indices of patients with BPS. Methods: A total of 30 female patients with the diagnosis of BPS and 30 female as control group were enrolled in the study. Bilateral internal iliac arterial blood flow distal to uterine arteries were examined as the primary source of vesical arterial blood supply. Peak systolic velocities, end diastolic velocities, resistive indices, and flow volumes of internal iliac arteries were measured by color Doppler ultrasonography in a single-blind fashion. Results: The blood flows volume of the right and left internal iliac arteries during empty and full bladder were significantly lower at BPS group compared with control (P < 0.05). Although the difference was not significant, the mean resistive index of right and left internal iliac arteries were lower at the control group (P > 0.05). Aging decreased the bladder blood volume and both BPS and control group internal iliac artery blood volume decreased by aging. The decrease was more significant at the control group, but the internal iliac artery blood volume was still lower at patients with BPS compared with the control group. Conclusion: Arterial blood flow of bladder was lower at patients with BPS compared with the control group. The decrease in the vascular supply of bladder might be one of the related factors for the BPS etiology. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
