Phantomschmerz – Phänomenologie, kortikale Veränderungen und Therapie

Abstract

Der Phantomschmerz bezeichnet das Phänomen schmerzhafter Erfahrungen in amputierten Körperteilen. Zurückzuführen ist der Schmerz wohl auf maladaptive Veränderungen von Nervenbahnen in der Peripherie sowie im Gehirn und Rückenmark. Aktuelle Behandlungsansätze zielen darauf ab, der pathophysiologischen neuronalen Reorganisation entgegenzuwirken.
