Intermittent stimulation of the parvo cellular portion of the nucleus ventralis posterolateralis (VLP) was able to control both pain and phantom limb phenomenon. The authors insist upon the transformation of the "body scheme" caused by an operation which does not alter the somesthesic function. The sensorial delusion of a phantom limb is probably related to an insufficiency of sensitive information at thalamus level.
间歇性刺激腹后外侧核（VLP）的小细胞部分能够控制疼痛和幻肢现象。作者坚持认为手术引起的“身体图式”的改变并未改变躯体感觉功能。幻肢的感觉错觉可能与丘脑水平的感觉信息不足有关。
