摘要
The aim of the present study was to establish whether contralateral treatment with local anaesthetics reduces nociceptive behaviour in mononeuropathic rats. Contralateral treatment with xylocaine on day 6 and 11 following sciatic nerve ligation increased withdrawal latencies to thermal but not to mechanical stimulation for 3-4 days. Rats who received contralateral treatment with xylocaine on day 6 and 11 showed a reduced autotomy score during the following 6 weeks. To compare ipsilateral and contralateral effects another set of experiments was performed. Rats treated contralaterally on day 11 had a significantly lower autotomy score at week 4 and 6. Our results demonstrate that contralateral treatment with xylocaine reduces nociceptive behaviour in mononeuropathic rats for days or weeks.
