Neuropathic pain with case examples and current therapeutic approaches
Özet
Neuropathic pain is by definition a chronic pain initiated or caused by a primary lesion or dysfunction of the peripheral or central nervous system. Since multiple complex pathophysiological mechanisms are supposed to be the cause for neuropathic pain, therapeutic approaches vary among physicians. In this article we report three cases with neuropathic pain and discuss therapeutic approaches with current trends while pointing out some important problems arising in everyday practice. © 2006 VSP.
