    Abstract: An implantable neurostimulator includes a lead comprising a plurality of electrodes at a distal end, and an implant body including electronics for controlling operation of the electrodes. An electrical connector establishes an electrical connection between the electronics and the electrodes. The implant body includes a first portion of the electrical connector, and the proximal end of the lead includes a second portion of the electrical connector. The first and second portions of the electrical connector are connectable to establish the electrical connection between the electronics and the electrodes. The lead is configured for initial implantation in the patient and the implant body is configured for subsequent implantation in the patient. The electrical connector is configured so that the connection of the first and second portions can be performed with the implant body and the lead positioned at a surgical site in the patient.
