Abstract :

Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) implantation has become popular in the last few decades. Currently, it is the gold standard therapeutic neuromodulation treatment that is being used in treating intractable chronic pain syndromes in patients who had failed medical treatment. The device has been successful in improving quality of life and decreasing narcotic intake. We wish to describe our experience with SCS implantation for the management of chronic pain syndromes and discuss our outcome through an outstanding and dedicated neuromodulation team.
