A " Hail Mary" Use of Sciatic Peripheral Nerve Stimulation for Intractable Ischemic Limp Pain in Non-Reconstructable PAD

Thursday, November 13, 2025
5:33 PM - 5:41 PM CT
Location: Griffin Hall - Screen 08
Introduction: Ischemic pain is complex, involving nociceptive, inflammatory, and neuropathic mechanisms. Spinal cord stimulation has been used to manage pain in critical limb ischemia (CLI) but concurrent use of antiplatelet medication limits interventional options due to bleeding risk. For patient's ineligible for revascularization who decline amputation, pain control becomes a major barrier to discharge and comfort. We present a case of sciatic PNS used as a palliative measure for ischemic pain, resulting in successful short-term relief.
