Abstract excerpt

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of persistent postsurgical pain (PPSP) and its influence on functional status, and to examine associations between PPSP and single nucleotide polymorphisms of the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene and the guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase 1 (GCH1) gene following mastectomy and reconstruction. DESIGN: Retrospective study. SETTING: Two teaching hospitals....
