To set up collaborations with other leading Institutes from around the world and participate in global research in the field of spinal injuries. To serve the needs of humanity as a whole and deliver the highest quality care to the poorest of the poor. Indian Spinal Injuries Centre the brainchild of Major HPS Ahluwalia was conceived in the early 1980s and was finally materialized in the year of 1997. A Major in the army, he found himself spinally injured in the Indo-Pak war of September 1965, after his successful climb to Mt. Everest earlier that year in May. Despite the tragedy that confined him to a wheelchair for the rest of his life, hope and courage did not falter as he was shunted from one hospital to other due to the scarcity of spinal injury services in India. He went to the Stoke Mandeville Hospital in the United Kingdom for rehabilitation determined to rebuild his life. A dream that began to realize in the 1990s soon found its motivation to serve its countrymen by catering to spinal injured patients making it a one of a kind institution in the country. A 185 bedded hospital in New Delhi, in collaboration with the Government of Italy through San Raffaele Hospital, Milan is nestled in a vast beautifully landscaped campus that stretches across fifteen acres of land with its own fruit orchards with over 150 trees and 15 varieties of fruit. All the wards are large and airy with a beautiful view of the citrus gardens.The ISIC model is economically sustainable, equitable and replicable in any developing country and has become a popular brand name in rehabilitation program both at global and national level. ISIC is the most advanced Spine, Orthopedic and Neuromuscular Surgical centre in India with the latest state of the art diagnostics and surgical equipment and a highly qualified team of specialists recognized internationally who have been trained in leading institutes of India and abroad. ISIC is much more than a hospital, it is also considered a training institute and teaching hospital affiliated with the National Board of Examination, internationally recognized leading Board of the country. Among the coveted courses are Fellowship in spine surgery, DNB Courses in anaesthesia and Orthopedic as well as Masters of Physiotherapy, Occupational therapy, Prosthetics and Orthotics among many with the provision of on the job training thus, attracting students from all over the nation. At ISIC, we seek to provide a comprehensive health care plan for our patients pertaining to all possible needs and requirements that can arise during a patient’s stay with us.

    AĞRI 2009;21(4):133-140 REVIEW - DERLEME Neurolytic blocks: When, How, Why Nörolitik bloklar: Ne zaman, Nasıl, Niçin Serdar ERDİNE1 Summary Interventional techniques are divided into two categories: neuroablative and neuromodulatory procedures. Neuroablation is the physical interruption of pain pathways either surgically, chemically or thermally. Neuromodulation is the dynamic and functional inhibition of pain pathways either by administration of opioids and other drugs intraspinally or intraventricularly or by stimulation. Neuroablative techniques for cancer pain treatment have been used for more than a century. With the de- velopment of imaging facilities such as fl uoroscopy, neuroablative techniques can be performed more precisely and effi ciently. Key words: Neuroablative techniques; neurolytic blocks; radiofrequency thermocoagulation. Özet Girişimsel teknikler nöroablatif ve nöromodülatör işlemler olarak iki gruba ayrılırlar. Nöroablasyon, cerrahi, kimyasal veya ısı uy- gulamalarıyla ağrı yolaklarında fi ziksel iletinin kesilmesidir. Nöromodülasyon, stimülasyon uygulamasıyla veya intraventriküler ya da intraspinal uygulanan opioidler ve diğer ajanlarla ağrı yolaklarının dinamik ve fonksiyonel inhibisyonudur. Nöroablatif teknik- ler kanser tedavisinde yüzyıldan fazla zamandır kullanılmaktadır. Fluroskopi gibi görüntüleme araçlarındaki gelişmelerle nöroabla- tif uygulamalar daha doğru ve etkili bir şekilde gerçekleştirilmektedir. Anahtar sözcükler: Nöroablatif teknikler; nörolitik bloklar; radyofrekans termokoagulasyon. 1Department of

  • Relative Potency and Duration of Analgesia Following Palmar Digital Intra-Neural Alcohol Injection for Heel Pain in Horses
    Relative potency and duration of analgesia following palmar digital intra-neural alcohol injection for heel pain in horses THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Christine Pariseau Schneider Graduate Program in Veterinary Clinical Sciences The Ohio State University 2013 Master's Examination Committee: Alicia Bertone, Advisor Michael Oglesbee Lisa Zekas Copyrighted by Christine Pariseau Schneider 2013 Abstract Objective: To determine the potency (percent analgesia), duration of action (up to four months), and clinical and histological effects of surgical exposure and intra-neural injection of 98% dehydrated medical-grade ethyl alcohol compared to no treatment (negative control), sham operation (surgical control), or formaldehyde injection (positive control) to decrease experimentally-induced palmar heel pain in horses. Animals: Six horses Procedures: The horses were fitted with a custom pressure-inducing shoe and had outcome measurements for each heel performed before and after nerve treatments. Outcomes included induced lameness grade and vertical peak force with pressure applied to each heel, thermal and touch sensation for each heel, and pastern circumference. Outcomes were followed serially for 112 days when nerves were harvested for histology. Results: Alcohol and formaldehyde reduced all measures of heel pain which progressed toward return, but persisted over the 112 days of the study (P<0.05). Pastern circumference was not different for alcohol than sham treatment, but was greater in formaldehyde than alcohol or baseline (P<0.05). Histological evaluation showed preservation of nerve fiber alignment with an intact epineurium, loss of axons (axon drop out), axon degeneration, fibrosis and inflammation in alcohol- and formaldehyde-injected ii nerves compared to control nerves.

Following failure in controlling the symptoms with phar- macological management, nine women underwent neurolysis of the ganglion impar in our Pain Clinic from 2009 to March 2013. The indication for the procedure was chronic pelvic pain (CPP) of either malignancy-related (4) or other origin (5). The Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and duration of pain relief were employed to assess effectiveness of the procedure. Neurolysis was efficacious in patients with both malignancy-related CPP and CPP of non-malignant origin. Reported relief time varied from 4 weeks to 3 years, while in 4 cases complete and permanent cessation of pain was achieved. No complications were noted. Key words: ganglion impar, ganglion of Walther, neurolytic block, chronic cancer pain, chronic pelvic pain, Numeric Rating Scale.

Neurolytic Celiac Plexus Blockade in Patients with Upper Intraabdominal Malignancies: An Evidence-Based Narrative Review Abstract Background: Cancer-related abdominal pain is a common symptom associated with upper intra- abdominal carcinoma, especially in patients with advanced disease and it has posed a significant therapeutic challenge to medical practitioners. Typically, cancer pain can be managed by following the World Health Organization 3-step analgesic ladder. However, analgesic use of opioids, the mainstay treatment for moderate-to-severe cancer-related pain, may be ineffective in a subset of cancer patients. Escalation of dosage may be limited by opioid-induced side effects. The aim of this study was to review the literature addressing the effect of neurolytic celiac plexus block (NCPB) on the palliation of pain emanating from advanced upper intra-abdominal malignancies.

  • Primary Experience with Ct Guided Mandibular Nerve Block in Patients with Trigeminal Neuralgia
    Al-Azhar Med. J. Vol. 46(2), April, 2017, 383-390 DOI: 10.12816/0038261 PRIMARY EXPERIENCE WITH CT GUIDED MANDIBULAR NERVE BLOCK IN PATIENTS WITH TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA By Samy M Abdelraouf *, Ashraf M Enite and Ola I Saleh Departments of Neurosurgery* and Radiodiagnosis, Al-Azhar Faculty of Medicine (Girls) ABSTRACT Background: Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a well-known facial pain syndrome characterized by excruciating paroxysmal shock pain attacks located in somato-sensensory distribution of trigeminal nerve. Mandibular affection is a common presentation of TN. Objectives: Studying the effect of injection of mandibular nerve with neurolytic solutions in trigeminal neuralgia that was unresponsive to pharmacotherapy. Patients and Method: This prospective study included 21 patients treated for mandibular neuralgia by percutaneous injection of absolute alcohol under guidance of CT image. Their ages ranged from 35-60 years and male to female was 3:4. All patients suffered from moderate to severe TN, and did not respond to medical treatment. Entry and trajectory of needle was planned by CT and after local anesthesia. Alcohol was injected at the exit of mandibular nerve from foramen ovale. Results: 85.7% of patients improved (71.4% became pain free and severity of pain decreased in 19%), while 9.6% of patients has no response after injection. The pain free patients became 61.9% after two years of follow up. Conclusion: CT guided mandibular nerve block by neurolytic agent as absolute alcohol and showed its effectiveness as minimal invasive treatment option for intractable trigeminal neuralgia. CT guidance provided a clear view to secure the safety, accuracy and selectivity of nerve block.
