Abstract
Back pain causes a significant physical, psychological, and social burden on afflicted patients. In thiscase, we describe a patient with inadequate relief from SCS paddle lead implant placed for post-laminectomy syndrome. We revised the patient’s SCS to a battery using conventional stimulator waveforms, utilizing existing leads as well as placing new ones. While a technically challenging procedure due to surgical changes, tissue fibrosis, and existing paddle leads, the procedure provided the patient improved pain relief.
