INTRODUCTION: @entity602 ( @entity602 ) is sometimes preferable in some refractory chronic @entity615 ( @entity615 ) pathologies. @entity602 involves an insertion of electrode leads into the epidural space in the prone position under local anesthesia, followed by neurostimulator implantation under local/general anesthesia. These continuous procedures can cause transient post-operative @entity615 exacerbation and to make temporary pockets that will store redundant leads in it with some risk of subcutaneous irritation and @entity281 in addition to making extra incisions. We introduce a modified simpler method for @entity602 implantation, systematically designed to be performed only under local anesthesia in a @entity6227 , non-prone position. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An 81-year-old @entity1 with FBSS was treated. A physician was able to insert @entity602 leads with ease while the @entity1 was in a @entity6227 position. The @entity1 was comfortable, under totally local anesthesia, and the procedure produced no extra subcutaneous pockets. RESULT: The @entity1 felt almost no @entity615 and reported no @entity158 exacerbation during the operation. The @entity602 installation provided the @entity1 with great improvement in both her lower back (NRS from 8 to 0-1) and leg (from 7 to 2) @entity158 with a great improvement in her daily life activities. No adverse events were observed during the perioperative period. CONCLUSION: The modified @entity602 insertion method enabled us to achieve both @entity158 relief and complete @entity602 implantation in a minimally invasive manner.
