Stimwave Neuromodulation Case Report, 2018

 

A Novel Minimally Invasive Wireless Technology for Neuromodulation via Percutaneous Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve Stimulation for Meralgia Paresthetica: A Case Report with 3-Month Follow-Up

 

A case report of peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) has been published in the Journal of Clinical Anesthesia & Research in March, 2018.

 

A patient presented with intractable burning pain and severe allodynia in the anterolateral thigh at the right side, and was subsequently diagnosed with meralgia paresthetica. One subcutaneous Freedom Stimwave stimulator system was implanated on the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. The procedure was uneventful, and pain scores (NRS) reduced from a 10 out of 10 before stimulation to a 0 while applying stimulation at 3-months follow-up.
