Description

Abstract:
Over the past couple decades, Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) has become a much-needed therapeutic option in combating chronic pain and can be implanted using a percutaneous or surgical (laminotomy/laminectomy) technique. This study aims to systematically review the complications that occur after spinal cord stimulation (SCS) placement via two different SCS implantation techniques (percutaneous vs laminotomy/laminectomy) in Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS), Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) and chronic back (lumbosacral)/leg pain. A systematic review was performed using Pubmed and EMBASE databases; prospective studies using SCS in FBSS, CRPS, and chronic low back pain patients that report complications and implantation method used were included. Using several different metrics for meta-analysis, equipment-related complications are most common following SCS implantation; when comparing complications between the two implant techniques, biological-related complications are more common in surgical rather than in percutaneous SCS procedures.
