Clinical Criteria for Improved Outcomes in Patients who Undergo Percutaneous CT-Guided Pudendal Nerve Cryoablation: A Retrospective Analysis

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to determine whether specific pre-defined clinical selection criteria were associated with improved outcomes in patients undergoing CT-guided pudendal nerve cryoablation. Their retrospective analysis of 75 procedures revealed that patients meeting all criteria experienced significantly higher rates of pain reduction (77.4% vs. 36.4%) and greater mean pain reduction compared to those who did not meet the criteria. Overall, the study suggests that adherence to these selection criteria can enhance the effectiveness of the procedure.
