臂丛神经损伤（BPI）通常发生在创伤后的年轻人中。这可能导致损伤后复杂的区域疼痛综合征（CRPS）的发展，这很难治疗。我们介绍了一组继发于BPI的CRPS患者。这些患者接受了星状神经节（SG）和脉冲射频（PRF）的神经调节，并随访了3个月，以评估干预后疼痛的缓解和药物摄入量的减少。发现PRF至SG具有持续约三个月的显著疼痛缓解。
Brachial plexus injury (BPI) occurs commonly in young adults following trauma. This may result in the development of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) following injury, which is difficult to treat. We present a group of patients with CRPS secondary to BPI. These patients were managed with neuromodulation of the stellate ganglion (SG) with pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) and followed up for a period of 3 months to assess for pain relief and a decrease in the intake of medications after the intervention. PRF to SG was found to have significant pain relief lasting around three months.
