Abdomino pelvic neuralgias are frequent, yet underdiagnosed conditions leading to chronic pelvic and abdominal pain (CPP). Repetitive trauma, stretching and entrapment are common mechanisms from which a nerve can suffer structural damage. Symptoms often are confused with other common visceral pelvic pain problems, such as endometriosis or bladder pain syndrome, leading to a delay in diagnosis and delivery of proper treatment. Neurological pain affecting the abdomen and the pelvis leads to a profound impact in quality of life, affecting day to day activities, and physiologic activities such as bladder, bowel, and sexual function. Is important for the health professional to suspect potential neurological sources of pain, and to identify the different nerves and their anatomical distribution, to properly treat them.  The objectives of this presentation are to: discuss general principles for nerve entrapment, apply anatomy concepts in peripheral abdominopelvic nerve entrapments and recognize peripheral abdominopelvic nerve entrapments as a source of chronic abdominopelvic pain.
