Abstract
Transcutaneous electrotherapy has been employed in 112 patients with chronic pains of various origins. The immediate and long term results are not considered, at whole, satisfactory, especially for length and quality of the obtained improvement. Only patients with chronic post-zoosterian neuralgia had good results, or immediate either at long term, especially in intercostal pains. In the contrary in acute cases of this nevralgia, there were not satisfactory improvements.
