- Title
Loin pain haematuria syndrome 1967–2020: a review.
- Authors

- Abstract
The purpose of this retrospective review is to question the validity of the condition 'loin pain haematuria syndrome' (LPHS). We highlight the possibility that most patients regarded as having LPHS have a psychiatric/psychological basis for their symptoms, particularly loin pain. Because of this, and because it recurs despite treatment, the review also questions the use of treatments that are invasive, expensive, and carry considerable morbidity.
