Abstract
Neuropathic pain (NP) is a common clinical refractory pain for which there are limited methods to treat. In this article, based on typical diseases, such as postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), trigeminal neuralgia, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), lower back pain with radiculopathy and failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS), phantom pain, the general treatment principle and method for NP are expatiated. Interventional methods for NP, including intraspinal block, radiofrequeney rhizotomy of trigeminal neuralgia, selective nerve root block, spinal cord stimulation (SCS) and motor cortex stimulation (MCS) are introduced, especially their indications, complications and matters needing attention.
