Abstract
Neurostimulation, for example dorsal root ganglion stimulation (DRGS), is increasingly used for managing chronic pain, including among women of reproductive age. We present the case of a 33-year-old patient with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) implanted with DRGS who subsequently became pregnant twice. Both pregnancies resulted in the delivery of healthy newborns via caesarean section under successful spinal anaesthesia, with no (device) complications. This case highlights the special considerations for managing pregnant patients with neurostimulation implants, including the differences between DRGS implants and other neurostimulators in the context of neuraxial anaesthesia and the continued use of neurostimulation during pregnancy.
