Back to the future: epidurography.
In this issue of the AJNR, Johnson (no relation) et al (page 697) describe their experience with the use of fluoroscopy and epidurography in the placement of epidural steroids. The authors assert that the subarachnoid injection of corticosteroids is a serious complication that can be avoided with the use of epidurography. A series of 5334 outpatient epidural steroid injections were performed af...
متن کاملAppearance of plica mediana dorsalis during epidurography.
To the Editor: The plica mediana dorsalis (PMD) is thought to be a band of connective tissue, which divides the epidural space at the dorsal midline. Existence of the PMD has been controversial since its first description in 1963 (1). The PMD has been regarded as a potential cause for unilateral epidural blockade (2, 3). For purpose of discussion, we present a case of a patient who presented fo...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Pattern of Transforaminal Epidurography
고식적인 경막외 차단술의 방법은 영상증강장치의 도움 없이 맹검법에 의한 추궁간(interlaminar) 혹은 미추 접근법으 로 행해져 왔으나 시술의 정확성과 특정 병변 부위를 목표 로 할 수 없는 한계가 있다. 연구에 의하면 매우 숙련된 의 사가 시행할지라도 맹검법에 의한 경막 외 주입은 25% 이 상에서 부적절한 곳에 바늘이 위치한다고 했다. 또한 경 막외 스테로이드 주입의 유용성에 관한 과거 연구들의 주 된 문제점들은 주로 맹검법을 사용하였다는 것이다. 따라 서 경막외강 내 바늘이 정확하게 있는지 혹은 혈관 내나 척수강 내 주입을 확인하기 위해서 조영제를 사용하여 영 상증강장치로 확인하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 기술적으로 경막외강에 접근할 수 있는 방법은 추궁간, 미추 접근법과 경추간공 경막외 스테로...
متن کاملCerebrospinal Fluid Collection, Myelography, Epidurography and Discography
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis is an important component of the diagnostic evaluation of patients with neurologic diseases, and abnormalities in the color, cellularity, and protein level of the CSF may contribute to or confirm the diagnosis. Cerebrospinal fluid abnormalities have to be viewed in the context of the neurologic examination, historical complaints, clinical findings, advanced im...
متن کاملCervical brachalgia: Assessment by cervical CT epidurography post transforaminal injection
Adjunct cervical CT epidurography (CCTE) can be used to image impingement in patients with cervical brachalgia undergoing fluoroscopic-guided cervical transforaminal injection (TFI) of steroid/local anaesthetic where magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is contraindicated. CCTE images of the 9 patients on whom the authors performed CCTE post TFI over 6 years from 1998 to 2003 were retrospectively r...
