摘要
目的介绍CT引导下选择性脊神经背根节射频热凝治疗带状疱疹后遗神经痛(PHN)的技术。方法CT引导下向相应椎间孔上1/3穿刺,当针尖解剖定位于该椎间孔上1/3时,行阻抗及电刺激感觉、运动的生理功能定位和低温预热确认,最后给予90℃、90s、3个周期的射频热凝治疗。结果16例顽固性PHN患者接受了治疗,均于CT引导下选择性找到靶神经的总计45个背根节,射频热凝治疗后患者的痛、触觉过敏(触发痛)立即消失,5例仍有残余自发痛,但发作频率显著减少,疼痛程度减轻,VAS由术前7~9分降至2~3分,随访2~16个月无复发。结论选择性脊神经背根节射频热凝技术有望成为治疗顽固性PHN的有效手段。
Objective To present the experience in a technique used to treat intractable postherpetic neuralgia (PHN)-percutaneous dorsal root ganglion (DGR) radiofrequency thermocoagulation guided by CT scanning. Methods Sixteen PHN patients underwent puncture of radiohealing needle into the superior 1/3 of the corresponding intervertehral foramen guided by CT. Electric stimulation test and impedance test were conducted to confirm the right spot. Radiofrequency heat coagulation therapy under the condition of 90℃ 90 s was performed for 3 cycles. Then mixture of betamethasone and lidocain was injected and the needle was pulled out. CT was conducted to observe if pneumothorax occurred. The patients were followed up for 2 - 16 months. Results Radiofrequency thermocoagulation was performed on 45 target dorsal root ganglia in 16 PHN patients with the effect of immediate disappearance of hyperalgesia. Remaining spontaneous pain was seen in 5 cases, however, with decreases of attack frequency and severity. The visual analogue pain scale score was decreased from 7 -9 before the procedure to 2 -3 after the procedure. No relapse was found during the follow-up. Conclusion Selective percutaneous DRG radiofrequency thermocoagulation guided by CT scanning is effective in treatment of PHN.
