Effectiveness of pulsed radiofrequency in treatment of phantom pain.
Case report.
Abstract
Phantom pain (PhP)is reported by patients after limb amputation due to
trauma or chronic diseases. We report the case of successful PhP
treatment with pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) of the femoral and sciatic
nerve. (PRF) reduced the intensity of pain for one year, improving the
quality of life of the patient.
