Sixty cases have had deep brain stimulators implanted in the past 3 1/2 years. Forty-six cases have had PVG stimulation for peripheral pain, two PVG implants for central pain, and 12 have had specific sensory nucleus stimulation for central pain. Of the PVG cases, 80% have total pain relief or only slight residual pain, and 20% have failed. Those that have failed were probably poor candidates who should not have been selected. Of the specific sensory nucleus stimulation cases, only 33% are satisfied with their results and 50% have totally failed. Two cases had early complications (intraventricular haemorrhage) and four had late complications (sepsis and electrode drift).
