Current analgesic strategies for the management of pain caused by chronic benign pancreatitis are poorly defined and frequently unsuccessful. Strategies have included pharmacotherapy, surgery, and interventional pain techniques such as celiac plexus blockade. Persistent quality analgesia with acceptable side effect profiles is difficult to achieve. Pulsed radiofrequency treatment is a minimally neurodestructive technique that may alter nerve conduction and offer a reduction in pain perception. We describe our experience with this technique in two patients with pain secondary to chronic benign pancreatitis.
目前用于治疗慢性良性胰腺炎所致疼痛的镇痛策略尚不明确,且常常效果不佳。这些策略包括药物治疗、手术以及诸如腹腔神经丛阻滞等介入性疼痛治疗技术。要实现具有可接受副作用的持续高质量镇痛很困难。脉冲射频治疗是一种微创神经毁损技术,可能会改变神经传导并减轻疼痛感知。我们描述了我们对两名慢性良性胰腺炎继发疼痛患者使用该技术的经验。
