Spinal Cord Stimulation: A Contemporary Series
Neurosurgery, 1991Abstract Forty-three patients with chronic pain disorders of different causes were selected for spinal cord stimulation. All underwent implantation of a ribbon electrode through a small laminotomy, under general anesthesia. Thirteen patients (30%) failed to obtain significant pain relief during a period of trial stimulation, and their ...

Abstract This chapter presents the case of a man who suffers from chronic back and leg pain despite spinal surgery, generally referred to as failed back surgery syndrome. Because his pain did not respond to drug medications and was predominantly neuropathic, he appears to be a good candidate for spinal cord stimulation.

Spinal Cord Stimulation for Spasticity
1987After the dramatic improvement of multiple sclerosis patients reported by Cook and Weinstein (1973), spinal cord stimulation (SCS) for the relief of spasticity and motor dyskinesias has been applied to a large number of patients. However, the overall effectiveness of this treatment has been a subject of considerable debate, some authors even reaching ...

Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a neuromodulation technique using electricity, proposed for the first time by Shealy in 1967, as an alternative to neuroablation. Technological improvements in the last 20 years (percutaneous electrodes, single and dual leads, octopolar electrodes, high energy internal pulse generators) have allowed to obtain good ...

The term spinal cord stimulation (SCS) describes the electrical stimulation of the dorsal column via electrode arrays implanted in the epidural space of a spinal level associated with a painful dermatome. Conventional SCS uses electrical pulses delivered at relatively low frequency (~50 Hz) using array designs that can be customized to patient needs ...

Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is treated with surgical or endovascular technique to restore blood flow as distally as possible. Neuromodulation in the form of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is offered to patients who have severe debilitating chronic pain and who are not amenable to conventional drug therapy or surgical bypass.
