Abstract

AIM: To evaluate the clinical effect of micro-surgical decompression of greater occipital nerve for greater occipital neuralgia (GON). MaterIal and Methods: 76 patients underwent surgical decompression of the great occipital nerve. A nerve block was tested before operation. The headache rapidly resolved after infiltration of 1% Lidocaine near the tender area of the nerve trunk. Results: 89 procedures were performed for 76 patients. The mean follow up duration was 20 months (range 7–52 months). The headache symptoms of 68 (89.5%) patients were completely resolved, and another 5 (6.6%) patients were significantly relieved without the need for any further medical treatment. Three (3.9%) patients experienced recurrence of the disorder. All patients experienced hypoesthesia of the innervated area of the great occipital nerve. They recovered gradually within 1 to 6 months after surgery. ConclusIon: Micro-surgical decompression of the greater occipital nerve is a safe and effective method for greater occipital neuralgia. We believe our findings support the notion that the technique should also be considered as the first-line procedure for GON.

Özet

AMAÇ: Büyük oksipital nevralji için büyük oksipital sinirin mikrocerrahi dekompresyonunun klinik etkisini değerlendirmek. YÖNTEM ve GEREÇLER: Yetmiş altı hastada büyük oksipital sinirin cerrahi dekompresyonu yapılmıştır. Ameliyattan önce bir sinir bloğu test edilmiştir. Başağrısı sinir gövdesi yakınındaki hassas bölgeye %1 Lidokain infiltrasyonuyla hızlı bir şekilde geçmiştir. BULGULAR: Yetmiş altı hasta için 89 işlem yapıldı. Ortalama takip süresi 20 ay olmuştur (ortalama 7-52 ay). Altmış sekiz hastanın (%89,5) başağrısı belirtileri tamamen geçerken ayrıca 5 (%6,6) hastada daha ileri tıbbi tedavi gerektirmeyecek şekilde önemli ölçüde geçmiştir. Üç (%3,9) hastada olay tekrarlamıştır. Tüm hastalar büyük oksipital sinirin enervasyon sağladığı bölgede hipoestezi yaşamıştır. Cerrahiden sonra 1-6 ay içinde zamanla iyileşme görülmüştür. SONUÇ: Makör oksipital sinirin mikro cerrahi dekompresyonu majör oksipital nöralji için güvenli ve etkin bir yöntemdir. Bulgularımızın bu tekniğin büyük oksipital nevralji için birinci basamak tedavi olarak düşünülmesini desteklediğine inanıyoruz.
