Implication

Case report demonstrates motor and functional recovery in chronic stroke using neuromodulation techniques.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the efficacy of a multi-site neuromodulation protocol in enhancing recovery in chronic stroke.
  • Case report of a 45-year-old man with right hemiparesis receiving 80 sessions of rTMS and PMS.
  • Treatment involved alternating bilateral M1 and midline Cz stimulation, followed by task training.
  • Outcomes assessed included MAS, FMA-UE/LE, and FIM.
  • Spasticity decreased and muscle strength improved (MRC 3/5 → 4/5).
  • FMA-UE increased by 5 points, FMA-LE by 4, and FIM by 19.
  • The patient regained independent walking and improved control over knee and ankle.
