Abstract:
Objective To explore the feasibility of treating recurrent mandibular neuralgia with radiofrequency thermocoagulation with double needle guide,and to study the clinical value of double needle puncture for foramen ovale.Methods In this study,40 patients with recurrent mandibular neuralgia admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to November 2023 were selected,and randomly divided into the observation group(20 cases using double-needle guide technology)and control group(20 cases using traditional single-needle guide technology).The two groups were compared before and after treatment.Results After the completion of radiofrequency thermo-coagulation therapy,the overall pain-free rate of all cases was 90％according to the adjusted grading criteria,and there was a differ-ence in the pain-free rate between the two groups(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the number of puncture adjustment and complications between the two groups(P＞0.05).The operation time of the observation group was longer than that of the control group(P＜0.05),and the number of postoperative acupuncture pain cases was statistically different from that of the control group(P＜0.05).After comparison of facial visual analogue scale(F-VAS),it was found that there were significant differences between the two groups(P＜0.05),and there were statistical differences between the observation group and the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Radiofrequency thermocoagulation with double-channel technique treating patients with recurrent mandibular neuralgia is,more thorough and has less complications.Although the operation time is increased,it can effectively eliminate the pain of patients.The tra-ditional bipolar radiofrequency thermocoagulation therapy technology is easily and accurately accomplished,which is worth popularizing.
