Neuromodulatory techniques such as spinal cord stimulation (SCS) are playing an increasing role in chronic pain management. The SCS leads are placed in the dorsal epidural space, either surgically or percutaneously, and are connected to a subcutaneously implanted programmable pulse generator.

They are most commonly removed for inadequate pain relief, but can also be removed for lead migration, device damage, infection, etc.

=== Indications ===

=== Surgical procedure ===
Paddle leads are larger and usually anchored to the spinal column under a small piece of bone.
