A Comprehensive Review of the Diagnosis, Treatment, and Management of Postmastectomy Pain Syndrome
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Postmastectomy pain syndrome (PMPS) remains poorly defined, although it is applied to chronic neuropathic pain following surgical procedures of the breast, including mastectomy and lumpectomy in breast-conserving surgery. It is characterized by persistent pain affecting the anterior thorax, axilla, and/or medial upper arm following mastectomy or lumpectomy. Though the onset of pain is most likely to occur after surgery, there may also be a new onset of symptoms following adjuvant therapy, including chemotherapy or radiation therapy.
RECENT FINDINGS: The underlying pathophysiology is likely multifactorial, although exact mechanisms have yet to be elucidated. In this regard, neuralgia of the intercostobrachial nerve is currently implicated as the most common cause of PMPS. Numerous pharmacological options are available in the treatment of PMPS, including gabapentinoids, tricyclic antidepressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, NMDA receptor antagonists, and nefopam (a non-opioid, non-steroidal benzoxazocine analgesic). Minimally invasive interventional treatment including injection therapy, regional anesthesia, botulinum toxin, and neuromodulation has been demonstrated to have some beneficial effect. A comprehensive update highlighting current perspectives on the treatment of postmastectomy pain syndrome is presented with emphasis on treatments currently available and newer therapeutics currently being evaluated to alleviate this complex and multifactorial condition.
