Treatment of Chronic Refractory Neuropathic Pelvic Pain with High ‐Frequency 10‐kilohertz Spinal Cord Stimulation

Abstract Chronic neuropathic pelvic pain remains a recalcitrant problem in the field of pain management. Case series on application of 10 kHz spinal cord stimulation is presented. High frequency stimulation can improve chronic neuropathic pain states that are known to be mediated at the conus medullaris and offers another avenue for the treatment of these patients.
