Abstract
in English, German

The report concerns a 61-year-old woman suffering from a chronic pain syndrome of peripheral arterial vascular disease. Despite level III-WHO medication she was not able to walk a distance of more than 100 m without pain. The patient received sonographically guided procaine injections into both femoral arteries. Directly after the injection the patient was free of pain for 4 weeks and for 6 months after a repeat injection.

Wir berichten über eine 61-jährige Patientin, die unter einem Schmerzsyndrom bei pAVK leidet. Eine Gehstrecke von maximal 100 m war nur unter starken Schmerzen trotz WHO-Stufe-III-Medikation möglich. Die Patientin erhielt sonografisch gesteuerte intraarterielle Procaininjektionen in beide Femoralarterien. Nach der Injektion war die Patientin schmerzfrei für 4 Wochen und nach wiederholter Injektion 6 Monate.
