A 35-year-old man presented with back pain, radiating pain down to left leg. He had a past history of discectomy at L45 and L5S1 level. Left leg and foot pain was getting worse. We diagnosed herniated disc and performed discectomy at left L5S1level. He had had intractable pain, allodynia, and discolorization in left leg and foot. Lumbar magnetic resonance (MR) images showed post-laminectomy and epidural fibrosis. Three phase bone scan (TPBS) demonstrated increased blood flow and pooling at right leg and foot. Electromyography (EMG) study revealed left L5 radiculopathy. The patient had undergone various types of procedures. The spinal cord stimulation (SCS) system was implanted. Left leg and foot pain was improved slightly. Intrathecal morphine pump (ITMP) was implanted. The physical examination showed hyperalgesia and allodynia in left leg and foot. In other hospital, SCS system was removed and dorsal root entry zone (DREZ) lesioning was performed. And then SCS implantation was performed at T89 level. CRPS was partially under control with pharmacotherapy and surgeries including SCS, ITMP, and DREZ lesioning. The authors report a case of CRPS following lumbar discectomy. Fig. 1. T2 weighted axial MRI after previous surgery show epidural fibrosis and herniated disc at left L5S1.

Spinal cord stimulation for FBSS and CRPS: A review of 80 cases with on-table trial of stimulation

Abstract: SCS is the most effective treatment for FBSS and CRPS, which is proven resistant to medical management. On-table trial and implantation is easy to perform with good success rate and low morbidity and if successful will reduce complication rates, especially infection.
