We describe a woman who developed postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) located on the skin areas of the left ophthalmic division of the fifth cranial nerve without ocular involvement. PHN was associated with tinnitus, which was located ipsilaterally to the painful side and increased in proportion to the intensity of pain. Tinnitus was responsive to treatment with duloxetine, 60 mg daily, and subsided when the PHN resolved. This is the first description of tinnitus in PHN.
我们描述了一位女性患者,她出现了第五颅神经左眼支支配区域的疱疹后神经痛(PHN),但眼部未受累。PHN 伴有耳鸣,其位置与疼痛侧同侧,并与疼痛强度成比例增加。耳鸣对度洛西汀(60 毫克/天)治疗有反应,当 PHN 缓解时耳鸣也随之减轻。这是 PHN 相关耳鸣的首次描述。
