대상포진후 신경통의 치료를 위하여 사용하였던 스테로이드로 인한 고혈당증을 동반한 환자를 치료한 결과를 다음과 같이 요약한다. 첫째, 통증치료실에서 흔히 쓰이는 약물 중에는 고혈당증을 유발하는 것이 많으므로 처치전에 고혈당이 영향을 주는 다른 질환의 유무를 확인하도록 한다. 둘째, 스테로이드 사용으로 인하여 발생되는 일시적인 고혈당중의 경우에는 스테로이드 사용 중단으로 회복이 가능하나 잠재되어 있던 당뇨병의 발현시는 지속적인 당뇨병의 치료를 필요로 한다. 셋째, low level laser therapy는 혈당치에 영향을 미치지 않는 통증치료법으로 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.

Post-herpetic neuralgia(PHN) is a chronic pain syndrome associated with the reactivation of a primary infection with varicella zoster virus(chinken pox), which leads to a chronic infection of dorsal root ganglia. The most common risk factor for shingles and its potential sequela, PHN, is advanced age. For a significant number of patients, the pain following healing of shingles can persist for months to years. If this pain, classified as PHN, persists longer than one month. PHN often leads to depression, disrupted sleep, decreased productivity, and utilization of health care. We treated a 60 year-old female patient who suffered pain and headache after Stellate Ganglion Blocks(SGB). In identifying points for differentiation of syndrom(辨證), this subject was diagnosed as Yangmyeong Merdian wind-heat syndrom(陽明經風熱證) and was administered Seungmagalgeuntanggamibang(revised Shengmagalgen-tang, 升麻葛根湯加味方). To ease pain, Western medication was administered as well. After fourteen days of treatment, pain and other symptoms improved.

본 증례는 안면의 수포성 병변과 함께 치조골 괴사에 의한 자연적인 치아 발거가 나타난 경우이다. 환자는 대상포진과 악골 골수염에 대해 치료를 받고, 매달 정기적으로 경과 관찰 중이며, 골수염의 재발 징후 및 증상은 보이지 않고 현재까지는 양호하게 치유되고 있다. VZV가 재발하지 않는 한 예후는 양호할 것으로 생각된다. 괴사골과 이환치의 발거를 시행한 무치악부위는 일반적인 가철성 국소의치를 통해 수복되고 있다. 그러나, 병소의 하악관의 침범으로 인해서 우측 하악 영역의 감각이상은 여전히 남아 있다.

Postherpetic neuralgia, the most feared complication of acute herpes zoster, may agonize the pain clinician because the appropriate management of intractable pain can fail inspite of various and prolonged therapeutic techniques. Of all patients with herpes zoster, approximately 5~10% will develop postherpetic neuralgia. Postherpetic neuralgia is very rare in young patient but very common in patients over 60. In other words, the older, the higher incidence. In our pain clinics, 13 postherpetic neuralgic patients were treated with sympathetic blocks, local infiltration with local anesthetics and steroids, TENS, Laser and various drugs including antiderpressant. The results of management of pain in 13 patents were as follows. 1. Excellent pain control :4(30.8%) 2. Good pain control :3(23.0%) 3. Fair pain control :2(15.4%) 4. No effect :4(30.8%).

비록 신경병성 동통이 환자에게 주는 심리적 부담에 대하여 잘 알고 있지만 동통의 역학조사에 대해서는 아직 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 신경병성 동통의 정확한 발병률도 잘 알려져 있지 않은 데, 이는 여러가지 새로운 의료기기가 개발되었지만 정확한 진단을 하지 못하고 있으며, 적절한 치료를 제대로 하지 못하기 때문이다. 본 연구의 목적은 한국내 모든 종류의 병원에서 치료한 몇 가지 특정 신경병성 동통에 대하여 역학조사를 시행하는 것이다. 2003년 1월부터 2005년 12월까지 건강보험심사평가원(심평원)의 전산에 입력된 환자들을 대상으로 조사한 신경병성 동통 환자와 치료 받은 과 및 치료기간 등에 대하여 조사하였다. 신경병성 동통 환자의 수와 유병률을 살펴보면 삼차신경통 77,053명(27.6%), 비정형적 안면통 12,382명(4.4%), 설인후 신경통 1,319명(0.5%), 포진후 신경통 84,598명(30.3명), 당뇨병성 신경통 85,989명(30.8%), 비정형적 치통 16,001명(5.7%), 설통 2,133명(0.8%) 이며, 시간이 경과함에 따라 포진후 신경통과 당뇨병성 신경통은 증가하는 경향을 보이나, 그 외 신경통은 대부분 증가가 둔화되는 양상을 보였다. 대부분의 환자들은 57.6-72.8% 에 이르도록 1차 의료기관인 개인의원에서 치료받았으나 비정형적 치통의 경우에만 10.3% 정도로 1차 의료기관에서 진료받는 비율이 낮았다. 치과의원에 내원하는 환자의 비율은 삼차신경통 3.2%, 비정형적 치통 35.4%, 설통 15.4%이며 그 외 나머지 신경병성 동통은 대부분 의원에서 치료받았다.

This study was designed to evaluate the effect of YongdamSaganTang on Herpes Zoster. Three pastients were taken YongdamSaganTang with acupunture, and cupping theraphy. After the treatment the grade of VAS was decressed and clinical symptoms were gradually disappeared. Those results suggest that YongdamSaganTang was effective treatment of Herpes Zoster.

Atypical facial pain is loosely used term to describe some chronic facial pain when the symptoms do not exactly and entirely fit one diagnostic criteria. In many cases of pain disorders, sympathetic system is involved, such as in conditions which symptoms mimic post-herpetic neuralgia or complex regional pain syndrome. We report a case of a patient with atypical facial pain following the reduction of temporomanidbular joint dislocation. The atypical pain which was resistant to analgesic medication was successfully managed with stellate ganglion block. Therefore we suggest that stellate ganglion block can be an effective treatment method for controlling atypical facial pain.

Authors have experienced the treatment for the uppermost frequent cases, herpes zoster, frozen shoulder and low back pain among those who visited our pain clinic. 1. Herpes zoster The Patients who received the treatment within 4 weeks of the onset of the disease, not only healed herpes without leaving post herpetic neuralgia but also crust formation was fast. 2. Frozen shoulder Over 90% of the patients who received suprascapular nerve block accompanied with trigger points electric stimulation was very efficient procedure, futhermore, authors felt keenly the necessity each patients co-operation and individual endurance for this treatment. 3. Low back pain An epidural steroid administration to the patients who did not have any organic disturbances was effective treatment. If this non-effective, search other cause of the disease or operation was advisable one.

Epidural block is used extensively in each of the fields of surgical anesthesia, obstetric anesthesia, and diagnosis and management of acute and chronic pain. New developments in the understanding of pain conduction have extended the use of continuous epidural blockade to the administration of drugs that selectively block pain conduction while leaving sensation and motor power essentially unchanged. The safety and the reliability of spinal epidural catheter techniques have permitted relief of acute and chronic pain. However, one of the important aspects of the management of the epidural catheter is the possibility of epidural infection. We have experienced a case of epidural infection during control of post-herpetic neuralgia and discuss management of the epidural catheter in this article.
