Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the analgesic effect and safety of subarachnoid chromaffin cell allograft for terminal cancer pain Methods Ten patients with intractable cancer pain despite traditional treatments were randomly divided into two groups In test group(n=4), 2ml of the suspension chromaffin cells cultured in vitro for 3 days was injected into the subarachnoid space through lumber puncture The same amount of cell free culture solution was injected intrathecally in control group(n=6) Opioids were administered continuously after transplantation The intensity of pain was assessed by VAS, the dose of opioids taken was recored,and the catecholamine and enkephalin concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid and immune function were measured before and after transplantation Results The VAS scores declined markedly in both groups after transplantation (P
