We present a case of a 68-year-old woman with 6 months of chronic unilateral posterior thigh pain after a total knee arthroplasty. The patient's pain was refractory to various treatments. After appropriate diagnostic tests, a genicular nerve block and subsequent radiofrequency ablation were performed. These procedures provided substantial pain relief of her thigh pain at 3 months follow-up.
我们报告一例68岁女性患者,在全膝关节置换术后出现持续6个月的慢性单侧大腿后部疼痛。患者的疼痛对各种治疗均无效。经过适当的诊断检查后,进行了膝状神经阻滞及随后的射频消融术。在3个月的随访中,这些操作使她的大腿疼痛得到了显著缓解。
