Post-mastectomy pain syndrome (PMPS) is a common and severe neuropathic pain syndrome arising after breast surgery. Since few effective allopathic treatments exist for PMPS, many patients may seek assistance from complementary and alternative medicine. Here, we report a case of a woman with severe and persistent PMPS who was successfully treated with acupuncture.
乳房切除术后疼痛综合征（PMPS）是一种常见且严重的神经性疼痛综合征，发生于乳房手术后。由于 PMPS 几乎没有有效的对症治疗方法，许多患者可能会寻求补充和替代医学的帮助。在这里，我们报告了一例严重且持续的 PMPS 女性患者，她接受针灸治疗后获得了成功。
