Indications, feasibility safety and efficacy of dorsal rhizotomy at the level of the conus medullaris (conus deafferentation) in individuals with spinal cord injury
The present study identified different indications for the use of CDAF that can be performed safely and efficiently with very few intraoperative and postoperative complications. We see a high potential in this method for the improvement of the paraplegiological and neuro-urological therapy spectrum.
