Intrathecal drug delivery to treat intractable neuropathic pain following Sjögren’s syndrome-induced transverse myelitis: A case report.
Abstract
Transverse myelitis (TM) is a spinal cord inflammatory myelopathy that causes motor/sensory loss and urinary retention below the level of the affected spinal cord. Although a few case reports have described the control of neuropathic pain in patients with TM via spinal cord stimulation, no documented case regarding the control of severe allodynia following TM via intrathecal pump has been described.
