Zusammenfassung

Aims: Central post stroke pain (CPSP) is hypothesized to result from disinhibition of pain by cold (Craig et al., Pain Forum, 1998). In a previous study in healthy subjects, we demonstrated by magnetoencephalography that innocuous cold stimulation of one hand activates exclusively the contra- and ipsilateral insular cortex whereas noxious cold activates additionally the contra- and ipsilateral SII cortex and variably the cingulate cortex (Maihöfner et al., Pain, 2002). Aims: To test if in patients with CPSP due to thalamic stroke the insular cortex on the lesion side is deafferentiated from innocuous cold input…
