Percutaneous radio-frequency mandibular nerve rhizotomy guided by CT fluoroscopy.
AJNR. American Journal of Neuroradiology 2006 September
We describe a new method for radio-frequency mandibular nerve rhizotomy under CT fluoroscopy. A patient with cancer had severe intractable and drug-resistant pain in his left mandibular region. Because he had an anatomic deformity due to cancer invasion and radiation therapy, we planned a mandibular nerve rhizotomy under CT fluoroscopic imaging. The needle was advanced to the mandibular nerve just caudal to the foramen ovale under real-time CT fluoroscopy, avoiding the cancer region. Pain scores of the patient were reduced after the nerve rhizotomy, without any complications.
