Insulin pump therapy effectively relieved pain in patients with diabetic radiculopathy. This treatment offers a valuable alternative for managing this painful complication of type 2 diabetes.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Endocrinology
  • Pain Management

Background:

  • Diabetic radiculopathy is a painful neurological complication of type 2 diabetes.
  • Standard analgesics often provide insufficient relief for this condition.

Observation:

  • Four patients with type 2 diabetes experienced segmental thoracoabdominal or lumbosacral pain.
  • Paravertebral electromyography confirmed diabetic radiculopathy in all patients.

Findings:

  • Treatment with an insulin infusion pump led to pain resolution within 2-14 days.
  • Pain did not recur in patients maintained on an euglycemic regimen, even after discontinuing the pump.

Implications:

  • Short-term insulin pump therapy may be a viable treatment option for diabetic radiculopathy.
