Abstract:
Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of radiofrequency thermocoagulation on the treatment of primary trigeminal neuralgia guided with digital substraction angiography(DSA) in short-term,mid-term prospect.Methods:Twenty-seven patients of PTN were positioned by DSA,then treated with radiofrequency thermocoagulation.The VAS scores,clinical efficacy and complication were observed nearly post-treatment.The effects in mid-term was assessed in secondary follow-up.Results:All patients were punctured successfully.After treatment,all patients have pain relief.VAS scores on day 1,day 3,week 1 after radiofrequency thermocoagulation were 2.12?0.64,1.04?1.02,0.46?0.31 respectively,decreased compared with that before treatment(P
