pulsed radiofrequency of lumbar dorsal root ganglion for chronic postamputation phantom pain
two patients with phantom pain were selected for the study. after a positive response to segmental nerve blockade at the l4 and l5 nerve roots, prf was performed on the l4 and l5 dorsal root ganglia. global clinical improvement was good in one patient, with a 40% decrease in pain on the visual analogue scale (vas) in 6 months, and moderate in the second patient, with a 30% decrease in pain scor...
متن کاملComparison between bipolar pulsed radiofrequency and monopolar pulsed radiofrequency in chronic lumbosacral radicular pain
BACKGROUND Chronic lumbosacral radicular pain is a challenging medical problem with respect to therapeutic management. Many patients with lumbosacral radicular pain complain of persistent leg pain after transforaminal epidural steroid injection. Nowadays, pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) stimulation on the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) is widely used for controlling lumbosacral radicular pain. METHOD...
متن کاملPulsed Radiofrequency of Lumbar Dorsal Root Ganglion for Chronic Postamputation Phantom Pain
Chronic pain following lower-limb amputation is now a well-known neuropathic, chronic-pain syndrome that usually presents as a combination of phantom and stump pain. Controlling these types of neuropathic pain is always complicated and challenging. If pharmacotherapy does not control the patient's pain, interventional procedures have to be taken. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effica...
متن کاملThe Efficacy of Pulsed Radiofrequency Treatment of Cervical Radicular Pain Patients
OBJECTIVE Cervical radicular pain is defined as pain arising in the arm caused by irritation of a cervical spinal nerve or its roots. Although many treatment modalities are described in the literature, the available evidence for efficacy is not sufficient to allow definitive conclusions. The goal of this study was to establish the benefits and prognostic factors of pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) o...
متن کاملShort-Term Effects of Pulsed Radiofrequency on Chronic Refractory Cervical Radicular Pain
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the short-term effectiveness of pulsed radiofrequency on the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) in patients with chronic refractory cervical radicular pain. METHOD Fifteen patients (13 males, 2 females; mean age, 55.9 years) with chronic radicular pain due to cervical disc herniation or foraminal stenosis refractory to active rehabilitative management, including transforaminal c...
