Treatment of Refractory Radial Neuropathy with Implantation of Radial Nerve Stimulator.

Abstract

With the high rate of complications of spine surgery and the current opioid epidemic, peripheral nerve stimulation has become more popular in recent years. This procedure is usually indicated for patients who have failed conservative measures for pain relief.A 56-year-old man with a past medical history of right-hand pain after trauma who failed a trial of opioids and nerve blocks underwent a radial nerve stimulator procedure, which successfully resolved his neuropathic pain state.Radial nerve stimulators should be offered as an alternative to pain management in patients who have failed conservative treatment options and who continue to have peripheral nerve pain.
