Y1 - 2016 N1 - T2 - Anesthesiology Core Review: Part Two Advanced Exam AB - Phantom pain is described as a painful sensation that an individual experiences relating to a limb or an organ that is not physically present. Weir Mitchell is credited with coining the term during the American Civil War even though earlier physicians had reported the phenomena of abnormal sensations and pain in amputated limbs. Amputation of a limb can lead to both painful and nonpainful sensations: phantom pain, phantom sensations, telescoping, and stump pain.
