英文摘要 | Greater occipital neuralgia is characterized by lancinating pain extending from the occiput up to the cranial vertex. It may be idiopathic or may appear following a history of cervical trauma. We report two cases of intractable greater occipital neuralgia successfully treated by open C-2 ganglionectomy. Both patients had a history of cervical spine trauma prior to the onset of neuralgia. The pain was not controlled well by conservative treatment with medication, physical modalities, and local injections. No evidence of mechanical compression was seen during surgery except for an engorged venous plexus around the ganglion. Based on our experience and recommendations in the literature, we recommend C-2 ganglionectomy as one of an effective treatment for post-traumatic occipital neuralgia. |
