Summary

This study aims to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of epidural neuroplasty using a Racz catheter during lumber fixation in situ for lumbosacral spondylolisthesis.

Detailed description

Lumbosacral spondylolisthesis, a common neurosurgical disorder, involves the anterior displacement of a vertebra in relation to the one below it. It often leads to back pain and neurologic symptoms. Epidural lysis of adhesions is a procedure which treat chronic LBP in patients which didn't respond to medical treatments.The technique of Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) uses high-frequency current to produce tissue coagulation and heat. It involves the use of radio waves, applied through a percutaneous probe to generate heat and create a lesion in a spinal sensory nerve
