Abstract
Spinal cord stimulation is an invasive therapy for chronic neuropathic pain, usually used as a last-resort treatment when all other treatments have been tried and failed. The clinical value of the therapy has been much debated in recent years; here, we summarize the therapy and discuss the core controversies. Spinal cord stimulation is seen as a last-resort therapy for the treatment of chronic pain. Controversies surrounding the treatment might be addressed through collaborative efforts to conduct innovative clinical trials and reach consensus on treatment guidelines.
