title: Head and neck peripheral stimulation for chronic pain report of three cases.
abstract: Neuropathic facial pain often is a very difficult problem to treat. We describe three cases of intractable neuropathic facial pain which were successfully treated with peripheral stimulation. These three cases review trialing, operative considerations, including cosmetic considerations, and provide some insight into the pathophysiology of these pain syndromes.
