Chronic pelvic pain is a very common disease in women. As a final and life-long solution laparoscopic sacrouterine nerve ablation (LUNA) is generally used in the daily practice.To investigate the effectiveness of LUNA by evaluating their results.Authors performed sacrouterine nerve ablation on 20 patients suffering from chronic pelvic pain. Using visual analogue scale, and with the help of computer database and mailed personal questionnaires efficacy of the method was evaluated.16 out of 20 cases could be estimated. In 10 patients the level of the pain decreased from 10 to 0, in 2 patients from 8 to 0, while in one from 5 to 0. In 2 patients a decrease from 10 to 4 and 5 was detected in the pain intensity. The level of pain remained unchanged in five patients. There were no side effects during procedures.Despite of the low number of the patients authors emphasize the very good effectiveness of laparoscopic sacrouterine nerve ablation in treating of chronic pelvic pain if the procedure is well indicated. |
