Abstract:
Objective To investigate the preventive effect of the artificial nerve canal on irritating neuralgia after neurilemmoma resection.Methods Thirty patients diagnosed as neurilemmoma were divided into artificial nerve group and control group at randomly.There were 15 patients in each group.The nerves in artificial nerve group were enclosed using the artificial nerve besides neurilemmoma resection.The nerves in control group only had neurilemmoma resection.All patients were assessed with VAS for the degree of irritating neuralgia at 3 time points after operation.Calculate the incidence of irritating neuralgia and analyze the data using statistical methods.Results In control group,the VAS scores were 7.5,5.1,2.8,and the incidences of irritating neuralgia were 80％,67％,40％,respectively.In artificial nerve group,the VAS scores were 3.2,1.5,0,and the incidences of irritating neuralgia were 33％,13％,0.The VAS scores and the incidences of irritating neuralgia of two groups had significant difference by statistical analysis (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The artificial nerve canal can relieve the degree and decrease the incidence of irritating neuralgia after neurilemmoma resection,which is a useful method to prevent irritating neuralgia in clinic.
