Abstract
All tissues of the body are innervated by nociceptors with the exception of the neuraxis. Unlike other physiological processes, pain does not emanate from a single specific organ but is a distributed system. There is also no completely objective way to know that pain truly exists nor a single target or location to treat it. Therefore, patient selection and psychological assessment is of the utmost importance in evaluating a patient for a surgical pain-relief procedure.
