RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Although several treatments are currently available for chronic pelvic pain, 30-60% of patients do not respond to them. Therefore, these therapeutic options require a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying endometriosis-induced pain. This study focuses on pain management after failure of conventional therapy. METHODS: We reviewed clinical data from 46 patients with endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain unresponsive to conventional therapies at Puerta de Hierro University Hospital Madrid, Spain from 2018 to 2021. Demographic data, clinical and exploratory findings, treatment received, and outcomes were collected. RESULTS: Median age was 41.5 years, and median pain intensity was VAS: 7.8/10. Nociceptive pain and neuropathic pain were identified in 98% and 70% of patients, respectively. The most common symptom was abdominal pain (78.2%) followed by pain with sexual intercourse (65.2%), rectal pain (52.1%), and urologic pain (36.9%). A total of 43% of patients responded to treatment with neuromodulators. Combined therapies for myofascial pain syndrome, as well as treatment of visceral pain with inferior or superior hypogastric plexus blocks, proved to be very beneficial. S3 pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) plus inferior hypogastric plexus block or botulinum toxin enabled us to prolong response time by more than 3.5 months. CONCLUSION: Treatment of the unresponsive patient should be interdisciplinary. Depending on the history and exploratory findings, therapy should preferably be combined with neuromodulators, myofascial pain therapies, and S3 PRF plus inferior hypogastric plexus blockade.

RESUMO

Introducción: El uso de radiofrecuencia de los nervios geniculados para el tratamiento del dolor crónico de la rodilla secundario a osteoartrosis inició en 2011, y desde entonces se han realizado varios estudios con diferentes metodologías. Sin embargo, continúan generándose muchas dudas con respecto a las dianas anatómicas, los criterios de selección y la evidencia de su efectividad. Materiales y métodos: Se realizó una búsqueda electrónica desde enero de 2011 hasta abril de 2020 en las siguientes bases de datos: PubMed®, Embase ®, Google Académico y Web of Science (WoS). La búsqueda inicial encontró 106 artículos, de los cuales tomamos 33 para realizar la presente revisión. Resultados: Después de analizar cinco ensayos clínicos abiertos, un estudio de corte transversal, cuatro estudios prospectivos observacionales, ocho estudios de neuroanatomía, tres estudios retrospectivos, cuatro casos clínicos, dos series de casos, tres revisiones de la literatura y tres ensayos clínicos aleatorizados, controlados y doble ciegos; encontramos que la radiofrecuencia de los nervios geniculados disminuye el dolor asociado a la osteoartrosis de rodilla, consiguiendo una mejoría funcional con una duración variable del efecto analgésico entre tres y doce meses. A pesar del avance científico en esta área, aún no hay un consenso en cuanto a la neuroanatomía de la cápsula articular de la rodilla, la ubicación de las dianas, los parámetros empleados en radiofrecuencia y la utilidad de los bloqueos diagnósticos. Conclusiones: Se necesitan más ensayos clínicos que estandaricen los parámetros utilizados y confirmen los resultados positivos de los estudios realizados con radiofrecuencia de los nervios geniculados...(AU)


Introduction: The use of genicular nerve radiofrequency procedures to treat chronic knee pain due to osteoarthritis has surged in 2011, though many questions remain regarding anatomical targets, selection criteria, and evidence for effectiveness. Materials and methods: An electronic search was performed from January 2011 to April 2020. Databases searched included PubMed®, Embase®, Google Scholar and Web of Science (WoS). The initial search found 106 articles. Thirty-three articles were taken for this review. Results: After analyzing five open clinical trials, one cross-sectional study, four prospective observational studies, eight neuroanatomy studies, three retrospective studies, four clinical cases, two case series, three literature reviews and three randomized, double blind, controlled trials; we found genicular nerve radiofrequency achieves a pain reduction and functional improvement with a variable duration, between three and twelve months. There is no consensus regarding the neuroanatomy of the knee joint capsule, the location of the targets, the radiofrequency parameters used and the usefulness of diagnostic blocks. Conclusion: More clinical trials are needed to standardize the parameters used and confirm the positive results of genicular nerve radiofrequency. Although lonthere are few cases of adverse events associated with radiofrequency of the geniculate nerves, more studies are needed to support the safety of this technique and its long-term side effects in osteoarthritis knee pain management associated that do not respond to other previous medical treatments.(AU)

RESUMO

El cáncer de páncreas produce dolor en más del 80 % de los pacientes, con un manejo analgésico en ocasiones insatisfactorio debido a las opciones terapéuticas limitadas y a la variación de la práctica clínica, siendo necesario un manejo multidisciplinar. El desarrollo de este artículo ha consistido en revisar la literatura y resumir la evidencia actual de los procedimientos intervencionistas neurolíticos para manejar el dolor visceral asociado al cáncer de páncreas. La fuente de artículos de esta revisión se ha obtenido a través de PubMed y Medline, limitando la búsqueda a ensayos controlados y aleatorizados, revisiones sistematizadas, estudios prospectivos y retrospectivos y presentaciones de series de casos. Se muestra la evidencia actual de los diferentes abordajes para la neurólisis del plexo celiaco y de los nervios esplácnicos, describiendo su eficacia, riesgos, complicaciones y limitaciones. El objetivo final ha sido establecer una propuesta de algoritmo intervencionista que pueda mejorar el manejo del dolor en los pacientes que sufren dolor visceral debido al cáncer de páncreas


Pancreatic cancer provokes pain in more than 80 % of patients, resulting in a management of pain that is often unsatisfactory due to the limited treatment options and the significant variation in clinical practice, emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary approach. This article has been redacted to review the literature and summarize the actual evidence of neurolytic procedures to treat pain caused by pancreatic cancer. The sources of these of articles have been obtained by using PubMed and Medline, restricting the search to randomized control comparative studies, systematic reviews, prospective and retrospective studies, and case series presentations. This article shows the actual evidence of the different approaches for the celiac plexus and splanchnic nerve neurolysis, regarding its efficacy, risks, adverse effects, and limitations. The final objective has been to propose an interventional algorithm that might help to improve pain management in patients suffering from pancreatic cancer
