The presentation to follow does not claim to be a finished piece of work, or a survey of all the facts, or a theory which will settle the problem of phantom limbs once and for all. Rather, it is the result of a long-standing interest, occasional but fairly systematic examination of patients, with infrequent glimpses into the literature.

Experimental Neurology, 1973
Abstract The presence of a phantom arm that resembles the descriptions of phantom limbs by amputees and paraplegics is reported by human subjects who receive an anesthetic block of the sensory and motor nerves of the arm. When the subject's eyes are closed, the position of the phantom arm is reported to be at the side or above the abdomen or lower ...

Regional Anesthesia: The Journal of Neural Blockade in Obstetrics, Surgery, & Pain Control, 1989
A phantom limb is universally experienced after a limb has been amputated or its sensory roots have been destroyed. A complete break of the spinal cord also often leads to a phantom body below the level of the break. Furthermore, phantom breasts, genitals and other body areas occur in a substantial number of people after surgical removal or denervation

Physical Therapy Reviews, 1999
AbstractA body-image disturbance observed in most patients who undergo amputation of a limb is the perception of having the missing limb. The phenomenon is known as ‘phantom limb’. Despite a vast clinical literature on painless and painful phantom limb sensations, little is known about their origin.

Phantom limbs pose a philosophical problem about the location of pains. The work of Descartes first used them to make a philosophical point about the brain in relation to the body. They have traditionally been thought of as being due to nerve endings on the pathway to the original limb being activated.
