Abstract<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

A rare disorder in post stroke patients is “Dejerine Roussy syndrome” or ” Thalamic pain syndrome ” that is broadly defined as the stroke causing damage to the thalamus. Most commonly affects one hemisphere of brain and leads to lack of sensation on contra lateral side of the body . Thalamic pain syndrome has eponyms as\u201d Central Post Pain Syndrome , Thalamic Hypersthetic Anaesthesia, Central Pain Syndrome\u201d . It was found in 1906 and entitled as “De Syndrome Thalami Qui”. Thalamic pain syndrome is characterized by numbness on the affected side which is replaced by burning & tingling sensations. These are accompanied by abnormal sensation of touch which refers to pain . It is a form of neuropathic\u00a0 pain often occur in combination of itching , burning , & tingling sensations in response to stimuli . Following is a \u00a0case of 40 yr old female presenting with wide spread of pain over half of the body\u00a0 attributed to\u00a0 thalamic pain syndrome . Discussion of the characteristics of neuropathic pain\u00a0 and testing techniques\u00a0 by using sensory examination of Fugl Meyer Assessment Scale (FMA) and Nottingham Sensory Assessment (NSA) were described in detail.<\/p>\n

Key words<\/strong>: Thalamic Pain Syndrome , Desensitization, Sensory Re-Education.<\/p>\n
