Abstract
We report a patient whose phantom limb pain was controlled by mirror box therapy and continuous epidural block. A 37-year-old man developed phantom limb pain with stump pain after brachial plexus avulsion. Because the stump pain worsened shortly after mirror box therapy, it was difficult to continue mirror box therapy. The worsened stump pain was treated with continuous epidural block. Mirror box therapy was resumed after improvement of stump pain with continuous epidural block. The phantom pain gradually decreased with mirror box therapy. Thereafter, he received epidural electrical stimulation of the spinal cord. The pain was wellcontrolled.
