Özet

Spinal cord stimulation (SCS), an implantable neuromodulation modality, is one of the most exciting developments in chronic painsyndromes. In addition, SCS may improve intractable pain and may help ischemic wound healing. Herein, we report a 59-year-old femalepatient with persistent neuropathic pain and peripheral arterial disease in the lower limb which was treated successfully with SCS.
