Abstrakt:	Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is currently used to treat peripheral vascular disease (PVD) and refractory angina pectoris not amenable to revascularization. In a case of contemporaneous SCS implant and permanent cardiac pacemaker (PPM), if multipolar electrodes are used it is possible to avoid any interference between the systems. We describe the case ofa patient with a DDD pacemaker, in whom two bipolar SCSs were implanted at different times; one to control refractory angina pectoris and the other for PVD. No interference between the three systems has been observed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
