A Case of Chronic Penile Pain Successfully Treated With Dorsal Nerve Block.
Chronic penile pain causes significant suffering in men, yet the management of chronic penile pain is not described in current literature. A patient presented with penile pain for 3 months following a tick bite. The pain was debilitating, and prevented him from working or performing routine activities. Extensive workup of the pain did not demonstrate an identifiable cause. The patient underwent dorsal nerve block (DNB), which provided immediate pain relief and continued to provide significant relief for several months. This is the first case of chronic penile pain that was successfully managed with DNB.
期刊介绍:
A & A Case Reports, our new online journal publishing Case Reports, related Editorial Commentary, and Correspondence. Anesthesia & Analgesia 1 and Anesthesiology 2 recently announced that they were suspending publication of Case Reports. One reason is that Case Reports typically reduce the Impact Factor of a journal because they are rarely cited. Regardless of the merits of Impact Factor as a metric of journal worth, journals and their editors necessarily consider Impact Factor in strategic planning. At the same time, Case Reports are appreciated by readers for describing “real life” management of difficult or unusual cases not often encountered by practitioners. In a recent issue of Anesthesia & Analgesia, Steven Shafer1 identified many Case Reports whose publication launched productive careers dedicated to solving the puzzle posed by an unusual observation in a single patient.
