Brief description/objective

Bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC) is a common medical problem in both sexes affecting people of all ages. Patients might report overactive bladder symptoms with additional bladder pain at maximum bladder filling, during and after micturition. This review aims to highlight pathophysiological mechanisms associated with this disease.
