Clinical and radiologic features of long-lasting pain after BM-MSC therapy in ALS: A single-center observation study

Key Points

• Long-lasting pain emerges frequently in ALS patients after BM-MSC therapy, highlighting a critical post-treatment outcome.
• In this study, 78% of participants reported persistent pain, assessed through clinical evaluations and imaging techniques.
• Observational analysis of a single-center cohort provided insights into pain management challenges in ALS post-BM-MSC therapy.
• These findings suggest a need for improved understanding of pain mechanisms following stem cell interventions in ALS.
