GARCIA RODRIGUEZ, Clara et al. ACNES syndrome, not all abdominal pain is visceral. Rev Pediatr Aten Primaria [online]. 2021, vol.23, n.89, pp.e17-e21. Epub 09-Maio-2022. ISSN 1139-7632.
The anterior cutaneous nerve entrapment syndrome (ACNES) is a type of chronic neuropathic pain felt in the abdominal wall. Initially, its diagnosis is clinical, based on a compatible clinical history and physical examination, with Carnett signs, Pinch test and/or positive dysesthesias. The definitive diagnosis is made through clinical improvement after infiltration with topical anesthetic at the point of maximum pain. This syndrome is frequently overlooked and therefore underdiagnosed, involving an excess of unnecessary and invasive complementary tests.
