Four‐Extremity Neurostimulation Using Two Cervical Octapolar Leads and High Frequency of 10 kH z

Objectives and Methods A few published reports describe successful clinical use of low‐frequency spinal cord stimulation ( SCS ) in the cervical spine resulting in bilateral upper and lower extremity pain relief. A major side‐effect when using this modality of SCS is the uneven intensity of paresthesias, which are frequently excessive in upper extremities while attempting to achieve optimal paresthesia coverage in all 4 extremities. Results and Conclusions Here we describe a successful case of high‐frequency SCS at 10 kH z where profound control of neuropathic pain of all 4 extremities was achieved without the complication of paresthesias. Discussed are future implications of such therapy.
