Central Pain Following Cord Severance for Cephalosomatic Anastomosis.

Central Pain Following Cord Severance for Cephalosomatic Anastomosis. CNS Neurosci Ther. 2016 Feb 16; Authors: Canavero S, Bonicalzi V Abstract One of the key obstacles to a successful head transplant is the possible onset of central pain, a chronic pain condition that would impair the quality of life of the transplantee. In this review, we provide the reader with a knowledge of this neglected aspect of the head transplant initiative and outline the management should this eventuality occur.
