Abstract
Neurosurgical intervention provides an effective treatment option for many medically refractory patients. Ablative procedures are beneficial for many patients with focal peripheral nerve injuries. Neuromodulation has great potential to alleviate pain, without the irreversibility of ablative procedures. Ongoing research will further enhance the capacity of neurosurgeons to treat pain by continuing to innovate technologically.
