Centro-median Thalamotomy: A Therapeutic Approach for Phantom Limb Pain

Abstract

Linlin Tomar*

Phantom Limb Pain (PLP) continues to present a challenging scenario for both patients and clinicians, necessitating novel approaches for effective relief. Centro-Median Thalamotomy, involving targeted lesioning of the Centro-Median Nucleus (CMN) within the thalamus, emerges as a potential therapeutic avenue. This study explores the feasibility and efficacy of Centro-Median Thalamotomy in mitigating PLP, drawing upon clinical observations and neurophysiological insights. Our findings contribute to the evolving discourse on neurosurgical interventions for chronic pain and may pave the way for tailored approaches in the management of Phantom Limb Pain.
