Аннотация
BACKGROUND: The term "central post-stroke pain" is more appropriate to describe neuropathic pain following a cerebrovascular accident. Most patients complain of burning and other symptoms like lacerating and shooting pain. Treatment options for central pain are limited in number and efficacy.
CASE REPORT: This paper reports on a 47-year-old man with central post-stroke pain refractory to treatment. The patient underwent insertion of a deep brain stimulator utilizing the Leksell frame. The target was the left centromedian thalamic nuclei. He had a qualitative symptomatic improvement.
CONCLUSION: Deep brain stimulation can be a useful tool when all other modalities have failed. It is a minimally invasive neurosurgical procedure that may improve the quality of life in carefully selected (often desperate) patients with central post-stroke pain.
