...Adult brains retain a remarkable ability to change in response to injuries that interrupt transmission of peripheral inputs resulting from damage to the peripheral or central pathways (Jones, 2000; Chen et al., 2002; Jain, 2002; Kaas et al., 2008)....

...Perceptual consequences of plasticity It has been proposed (Ramachandran et al., 1992; Jain, 2002) that plasticity provides an anatomical and neurophysiological substrate for referred phantom sensations that are experienced by patients with amputation of a limb (Melzack, 1971; Katz and Melzack, 1990; Ramachandran, 1993) or spinal cord injury (Sweet, 1975; Ettlin et al....

...The primary somatosensory cortex undergoes somatotopic reorganization after injuries to the peripheral or spinal pathways (Jones, 2000; Chen et al., 2002; Jain, 2002; Kaas et al., 2008)....

...It has been proposed that somatotopic reorganization results in perceptual abnormalities such as phantom sensations, which are experienced by patients with spinal cord injuries or amputations (Ramachandran et al., 1992; Flor et al., 1995; Kaas et al., 1999; Jain, 2002)....
