Original language description

Background: Intrathecal baclofen (ITB) delivered by programmable pump devices represents an important modality for long-term treatment of severe spasticity when resistance to oral drugs and/or their severe side effects may occur. Despite generally favorable outcomes and relative safety of this method, complications associated with ITB can be observed. The most common problems include surgery-related complications resulting from system implantation, including catheter failure. Pump rotation is a rare complication with incidence less than 0.3%. Case report: Seventy-four-years-old female suffered from spasticity after chronic spinal cord injury at T9 level. She underwent successful implantation of ITB pump (Medtronic, Synchromed II) with prompt spasticityrelief on baclofen dose of 100 mu g/day.
