&
Pages 65-71 | Published online: 08 Dec 2006
 

Abstract

This article describes a case of persistent sexual arousal syndrome (PSAS) seen by the Gynecology Consult Service of the National Institutes of Health. This syndrome was first described in 2001 and is characterized by excessive and unrelenting sexual arousal in the absence of desire. PSAS has only recently come to the attention of the health care community, and its prevalence in the population is not completely known. It is important to report cases of this syndrome in order to help clarify its prevalence, etiology, and prognosis and to determine possible methods of treatment.
