Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change from baseline in main score (SP) at 1 month
The main objective is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of botulinum toxin type A in refractory chronic proctalgia one month after a bilateral injection of 50 units of Botox ® in the ganglion Impar (total dose = 100 units) by calculating the main score (SP).
one month
Secondary Outcomes (4)
To assess the adverse events
6 month
To assess the duration of action of the product (main score SP)
