摘要

简介疼痛性腿和移动脚趾（PLMT）是一种罕见的神经系统疾病，其特征是神经性疼痛和下肢不自主运动。其病理生理机制尚不清楚，但可能涉及中枢机制，这表明非侵入性脑部刺激可能会有所帮助。迄今为止，还没有关于无创脑部刺激治疗 PLMT 的报道：一名 70 岁的女性有 1 年的 PLMT 病史。在多次尝试药物治疗未果后，患者接受了重复经颅磁刺激和经颅直流电刺激来缓解疼痛和不自主运动，但没有任何效果：这是第一份关于对 PLMT 患者进行无创脑部刺激的报告。尽管对我们的患者无效，但对于这种通常难以治疗且使人衰弱的综合征，应进一步研究无创脑部刺激疗法。

No Efficacy with Noninvasive Brain Stimulation for Painful Legs and Moving Toes: A Case Report.

Introduction: Painful legs and moving toes (PLMT) is a rare neurological disorder characterized by neuropathic pain and involuntary movements in the lower limbs. The pathophysiological mechanisms are unclear, but central mechanisms might be involved, suggesting that noninvasive brain stimulation might be helpful. Thus far, no reports have been published on noninvasive brain stimulation to treat PLMT.

Case presentation: A 70-year-old female had a 1-year history of PLMT. After several unsuccessful medical attempts, the patient received repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation to alleviate the pain and involuntary movements with no benefit.

Conclusion: This is the first report on noninvasive brain stimulation in a PLMT patient. Although ineffective in our patient, noninvasive brain stimulation should be further studied in this often difficult to treat and debilitating syndrome.

期刊介绍： This new peer-reviewed online-only journal publishes original case reports covering the entire spectrum of neurology. Clinicians and researchers are given a tool to disseminate their personal experience to a wider public as well as to review interesting cases encountered by colleagues all over the world. To complement the contributions supplementary material is welcomed. The reports are searchable according to the key words supplied by the authors; it will thus be possible to search across the entire growing collection of case reports with universally used terms, further facilitating the retrieval of specific information. Following the open access principle, the entire contents can be retrieved at no charge, guaranteeing easy access to this valuable source of anecdotal information at all times.
