Summary

Failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) is the term of persistent back and/or leg pain after surgery for lumbar disk herniation (LDH). Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (r-TMS) is a technique that allows non-invasive and relatively painless stimulation of cerebral cortex. It can reduce the experience of chronic pain by using magnetic field to produce small electrical currents in the cortex.The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of r-TMS treatment on patients with FBSS.

Conditions

  • Failed Back Surgery Syndrome

Interventions

DEVICE

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Patients in r-TMS group received 5 Hz of r-TMS. R-TMS applied with MagVenture device (MagPro X100, Denmark, 2009) and figure eight coil (MMC 140 parabolic, MagVenture).

DEVICE

Sham Repetitive transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Control group received sham r-TMS.
