 |
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a frequent
complication appearing as pain of unexplained pathogenesis. Its
association with Lyme borreliosis (LB) is fairly rare. In the
presented clinical case,...the patient fulfilled the criteria for both
diagnoses, i.e. CRPS and LB. The subsequent antibiotic therapy
resulted in a complete remission of both clinical entities. |

Neurostimulation Found More Effective and Less
Expensive Than Standard Treatment Protocol for Chronic Reflex
Sympathetic Dystrophy
|
An important financial assessment of
neurostimulation was recently published in the journal, Neurology by
Marius A. Kemler, MD Ph.D and Carina A. Furnée, Ph.D . (Neurology
2002;59:1203-1209). Available by order from the

New Studies Available on the Cost-Effectiveness of
Neurostimulation and Intrathecal Drug Delivery
|
Two recent journal articles by Krishna Kumar, M.B.,
M.S. FRCS(C), F.A.C.S. compare the cost-effectiveness of both
neurostimulation and intrathecal drug delivery vs. conventional pain
therapies in patients with failed back syndrome. Neurostimulation and
intrathecal drug delivery were found to be cost-effective in the
long-term, despite initial costs of the implantable devices. The
neurostimulation article is available to order through "journal
reprints" section of the web site (Neurosurgery; 51:106-116, 2002).
