The percutaneous thermorhizolysis is a relatively simple technique for interrupting root function in the paravertebral space. Pain-conducting fibers can be selectively inactivated by a thermal probe heated to controlled temperatures. In a series of 25 cases with terminal cancer pain syndrome a good to very good relief of pain was obtained in 18 cases. In 4 cases the pain relief was partial. Only in 3 cases the treatment was completely ineffective. The procedure can be applied to patients who are debilitated due to carcinoma or old age and can be repeated if necessary.
经皮热凝神经根切断术是一种相对简单的用于阻断椎旁间隙神经根功能的技术。通过加热到可控温度的热探头可选择性地使痛觉传导纤维失活。在一系列25例终末期癌痛综合征患者中，18例患者获得了良好至非常好的疼痛缓解效果。4例患者疼痛部分缓解。仅3例患者治疗完全无效。该手术可应用于因癌症或年老而身体虚弱的患者，必要时可重复进行。
