Abstract
We report a case of successful pulsed radiofrequency stimulation of the pudendal nerve for pudendal neuralgia. A 70-year-old woman suffered from perineal pain for 3 months. The pain was predominantly experienced only in the sitting position. She experienced tenderness by palpation of the bilateral ischial spine. After diagnosis with pudendal neuralgia according to Nantes Criteria, she was treated with the pulsed radio frequency of the pudendal nerve, and the pain was well controlled.
