  • Title: Stimulation of the medial plantar nerve for complex regional pain syndrome.
    Author: Mobbs RJ, Lazarro A.
    Journal: J Clin Neurosci; 2010 Nov; 17(11):1421-2. PubMed ID: 20708936.
    Abstract:
    We describe a 47-year old male with complex regional pain syndrome II in the distribution of the medial plantar nerve following metatarsal fracture, which was treated with peripheral nerve stimulation. Using a new technique of nerve stimulation with a percutaneous-type electrode, the patient experienced sustained relief at 12 months follow-up. To our knowledge, this is the first report of peripheral neurostimulation effectively managing pain for the medial plantar nerve.
