Novel Bipolar High-Voltage Pulsed Radiofrequency Targeting the Cervical Sympathetic Chain for Treating Acute Herpetic Neuralgia.

Abstract

Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) in the oral, maxillofacial, neck, and upper limb regions is a refractory neuropathic pain and severely affects the quality of life of patients.
