“Post Mastectomy Pain Syndrome: A Systematic Review of Prevention Modalities”.
Authors
Abstract
Post-mastectomy pain syndrome (PMPS) is a surgical complication of breast surgery characterized by chronic neuropathic pain. The development of PMPS is multifactorial and research on its prevention is limited. The objective of this systematic review is to synthesize the existing evidence on interventions for lowering the incidence of persistent neuropathic pain after breast surgery.
