摘要肱桡动脉搔痒症是一种罕见的慢性搔痒症，常发生于前臂背外侧。瘙痒、灼热或疼痛是受累部位的常见症状。其病因尚不清楚，但阳光照射和/或颈椎病变似乎是触发或促进因素。神经病理机制在BRP的发病机制中起重要作用，因此，抗癫痫药物如加巴喷丁、奥卡西平等。和普瑞巴林是治疗BRP的推荐药物。在此，我们报告三例成功治疗与普瑞巴林BRP。
Brachioradial pruritus (BRP) is a rare type of chronic pruritus that usually localized at the dorsolateral part of the forearms. Itching, burning, or pain are common symptoms at the involved areas. The etiological factors are still unknown but sun exposure and/or cervical spine lesions seem to be trigerring or precipiting factors. Neuropathogenic mechanism plays role in etiopathogenesis of BRP, therefore, antiepileptic drugs such as gabapentin, oxcarbazepine. and pregabalin are suggested medications for BRP. Herein, we report three cases with BRP successfully treated with pregabaline.
