摘要：An implantable neurostimulation electrode assembly comprises a firstelectrode unit and a second electrode unit configured to be arranged in a side-by-side
configuration. The first electrode unit includes a dielectric first paddle, a plurality of firstelectrodes carried by the first paddle, and a guideline. The guideline has a distal sectionaffixed to the first paddle and a proximal section having a length configured to extendexternally of a patient. The second electrode unit has a dielectric second paddle and aplurality of second electrodes carried by the second paddle. The second paddle isconfigured to travel along the guideline and contact the first paddle in the side-by-sideconfiguration. As a result, the first and second electrode units of this embodiment can bepassed percutaneously through the same percutaneous entry hole and assembled in vivoat the stimulation site to form a larger paddle-type electrode array without surgicalimplantation.
