Operative Neuromodulation: Volume 2: Neural Networks SurgeryDamianos E. Sakas, Brian A. Simpson Neuromodulation is a rapidly evolving multidisciplinary biomedical and biotechnological field. The two volumes present the state-of-the-art in established and emerging applications for pain, spasticity, movement disorders, bladder and bowel dysfunction, cardiovascular disease, epilepsy, psychiatric illness, impairment of hearing and vision, and computational neuromodulation. Experts describe the neural networks involved and the appropriate surgical approaches, provide clinical guidelines, technical descriptions of implanted devices, proposals for refinements and personal views on future prospects of the field. The immense therapeutic potential is highlighted which arises from the close collaboration of biomedical scientists and biotechnological engineers in this area and signifies the transition from the conventional "resective" surgery to functional neuroprosthetic surgery (Vol. I) and neural networks surgery (Vol. II) which uses neuro-engineering to improve impaired neural function. Vol. 2 describes the techniques and procedures applied by direct a) contact with the central nervous system or cranial nerves, in order to modulate the function of neural networks as in the case of motor cortext stimulation for pain or vagus nerve stimulation for epilepsy, or b) in deeply located structures inside the nervous system, in order to alter the function on specific networks as in the case of deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease. |

... trigeminal neuralgia was first established in the 1900s [79]. However, sectioning a brain pathway or center to treat pain elsewhere in the body was not performed until the 1930s [68]. At this time Sjoqvist sectioned the trigeminal tract ...
... trigeminal neuropathic pain with MCS and reported pain relief in approximately 60% of patients for periods up to 12 months [9, 27, 47, 50, 51, 58]. Peripheral deafferentation pain as well as brachial plexus avulsion has also been ...
... trigeminal neuralgia by either nerve section or alcohol injection [79]. However, aided by the introduction of human stereotaxis [69] and resultant deep brain targeting, destruction of brain pain pathways=centers as a treatment was not ...
