Interstitial cystitis and systemic autoimmune diseases

Interstitial cystitis is a chronic disease of unknown origin, for which definitive diagnostic criteria remain undecided. Various epidemiological characteristics of interstitial cystitis suggest an autoimmune nature to this disorder, and clinical associations have been made with generalized autoimmune diseases, among other disease. This Review discusses these autoimmune associations and various possible causal mechanisms.
