Neuromodulation could be a useful alternative therapy option. Dorsal root ganglion (DRG) stimulation has demonstrated better results than conventional spinal cord stimulation (SCS) for patients with CRPS in lower limbs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We report a case series of seven patients treated with cervical DRG stimulation for CRPS of the hand that required neuromodulation for pain relief, after no response with other analgesic techniques (medication and interventional). We report retrospective data collection of seven consecutive patients with a 1\u2010year follow\u2010up.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Seven patients were trialed, and six were implanted with a permanent pulse generator after achieving more than 50% pain relief during 2\u20137\u2009days of trial phase. The average pain relief (rated on a standard 100\u2009mm visual analog scale) after 1\u2009year of treatment was 64.3%\u2009\u00b1\u200916.6. No major complications were observed during a 1\u2010year follow\u2010up.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The results for cervical DRG stimulation are similar to other DRG stimulation studies for the treatment of refractory CRPS at lower levels. The cervical DRG implant technique guided with C\u2010arm fluoroscopy and under conscious sedation could be a safe and effective option for relieving pain of the upper limbs CRPS. Monitoring neural status is required for cervical DRG stimulation either with a responder awake patient or with intraoperative neural monitoring in non\u2010responder patients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/papr.13183","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,16]],"date-time":"2022-11-16T07:24:11Z","timestamp":1668583451000},"page":"242-251","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Cervical dorsal root ganglion stimulation for complex regional pain syndrome: Technical description and results of seven cases"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8018-3577","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rogelio","family":"Rosado Caracena","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital FREMAP Majadahonda  Majadahonda Madrid Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Agust\u00edn","family":"Mendiola de la Osa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital FREMAP Majadahonda  Majadahonda Madrid Spain"},{"name":"Puerta de Hierro Hospital  Majadahonda Madrid Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ana","family":"Rinc\u00f3n Higuera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital FREMAP Majadahonda  Majadahonda Madrid Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Eva","family":"Abad Fau de Casajuana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital FREMAP Majadahonda  Majadahonda Madrid Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gabriel","family":"Ruiz C\u00f3rdoba","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital FREMAP Majadahonda  Majadahonda Madrid Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fernando","family":"Garc\u00eda de Lucas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital FREMAP Majadahonda  Majadahonda Madrid Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1526-4637.2006.00169.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1533-2500.2010.00388.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM200008313430904"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/pme.12413"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ar.1091260104"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/j.pain.0000000000000814"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1113\/jphysiol.2008.154898"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000658-195701000-00010"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.neurom.2021.10.013"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_11_1","first-page":"395","article-title":"Epidural anatomy examined by cryomicrotome section.
