Neurostimulation for Spinal Lesions: Enhancing Recovery and Axonal Regeneration

Spinal neurostimulation is a promising approach for treating spinal lesions and has implications in various neurological disorders. It promotes axonal regeneration and neuronal plasticity to reestablish disrupted signal transduction pathways following spinal injuries or degeneration. This paper reviews the current technology and its differing utilities in various types of neurostimulation, including invasive and noninvasive methods. The paper also explores the efficacy of spinal compression and decompression therapy, with a primary focus on degenerative spinal disorders. Moreover, the potential of spinal neurostimulation in therapies for motor disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease and demyelinating disorders, is discussed. Finally, the paper examines the changing guidelines of use for spinal neurostimulation following surgical tumor resection. The review suggests that spinal neurostimulation is a promising therapy for axonal regeneration in spinal lesions. This paper concludes that future research should focus on the long-term effects and safety of these existing technologies, optimizing the use of spinal neurostimulation to enhance recovery and exploring its potential for other neurological disorders.
