متن کاملDescription of Optimal Angle of Needle Insertion For L5 Transforaminal Epidural Injection Leads to Complications.
Ra and Min (1) painstakingly have described the optimal angle of needle insertion for fluoroscopically guided transforaminal epidural injection of L5. Unfortunately, this potentially increases further complications related to lumbar transforaminal epidural injections with the safe triangle approach (2).Clearly, the literature undeniably shows that the safe triangle approach may not be safe and ...
متن کاملConus Medullaris Infarction After a Right L4 Transforaminal Epidural Steroid Injection Using Dexamethasone.
BACKGROUND For decades, epidural steroid injections have been an effective tool in the management of many pain related conditions, including lumbar radiculopathy. Transforaminal epidural steroid injections in particular have been reported to potentially result in central nervous system infarctions which have not been reported with interlaminar epidural steroid injections, while providing compar...
متن کاملSpinal cord ischemia following cervical transforaminal epidural steroid injection.
T cervical epidural steroid injection (TFCESI) is a common non-surgical adjunct in the management of patients with cervical radiculopathy. It has gained popularity over the interlaminar approach because of its direct delivery of the steroid into the site of pathology. These procedures require fluoroscopic guidance in addition to digital subtraction angiography (DSA) as they provide direct visua...
متن کاملTransforaminal epidural blood patch.
Spinal headache is an occasional, but painful complication of epidural injection procedures due to dural puncture that allows leakage of CSF from the thecal sac, thereby reducing intracranial pressure. In the event of failure of conservative management, (e.g. abdominal binder, fluids, acetaminophen), an epidural blood patch is often used. This case report describes a patient with spinal headach...
