Stereotactic pontine spinothalamic tractotomy was performed on eight patients with severe pain due to malignancy. The procedure enables high levels of analgesia to be obtained with less risk of respiratory and micturition disorders than percutaneous or open cordotomy.
对8例因恶性肿瘤导致剧痛的患者实施了立体定向脑桥脊髓丘脑束切断术。该手术能够获得较高水平的镇痛效果,且与经皮或开放性脊髓前侧柱切断术相比,呼吸和排尿障碍的风险更低。
