No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The amputation of a limb results in chronic pain associated with the lost limb in the majority of patients, which persists over time. Despite a large number of studies conducted in an attempt to elucidate the neural basis of phantom pain, these are still not elucidated and current treatments often fail to relieve patients' pain.
