An experimental morphological study of the methods of chemodestruction, cryodestruction and laser destruction as those of medical denervation in pharmacoresistant forms of prosopalgia was carried out. The obtained data testify to the presence of evident destructive macro- and microscopic changes both in the nerve trunk and its surrounding tissues when using alcoholic chemodestruction. A lesser degree of morphological changes was observed in phenol chemodestruction. Cryodestruction was characterized by morphological signs of persistent denervation with a minimal manifestation of perifocal changes in the surrounding tissues. The laser method of denervation resulted in replacement of destruction by regeneration in the early period. Perifocal changes were minimal.
