Improving neurological deficits secondary to transverse myelitis using epidural spinal cord stimulation: illustrative cases
Improvements in motor functionality and bladder functioning are well-documented as factors that improve quality of life among paraplegic patients. Given the findings of the present case report, larger cohort studies examining the use of eSCS for demyelinating conditions, including TM, are warranted. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE24152.
