Anterior commissurotomy for the relief of intractable lower half and midline pain has been found to be a very satisfactory procedure in a small group of severely incapacitated patients. The presumed anatomic rationale for undertaking the procedure has not been confirmed by postoperative sensory examinations. Alternative explanations for its effectiveness remain conjectural. The operative procedure is described.
