OBJECTIVE: To report treatment of spasticity in a spinal cord-injured person with intrathecal morphine after the person developed tolerance to intrathecal baclofen. METHOD: Spasticity in a 36-year-old man with T6 complete paraplegia was treated with increasing doses of intrathecal baclofen. When he developed tolerance to intrathecal baclofen, he was given continuous infusion of morphine intrathecally. SETTING: Regional Spinal Injuries Centre, UK. RESULTS: Spasticity was adequately controlled by intrathecal morphine. CONCLUSION: In spinal cord-injured patients with severe spasticity, who become tolerant to intrathecal baclofen, treatment with intrathecal morphine may be useful.
