Abstract:
Tremendous progress has been made in the understanding of neural pathways and tissues involved in back pain, and new treatment techniques for back pain have evolved. This article focuses on a technique called epidural neuroplasty (lysis of epidural adhesions). Originally performed as a single-catheter technique using the caudal approach, this technique now features a number of variations. These variations include emphasis on anterior placement of the catheter tip, use of a transforaminal approach, and use of one or two catheters.

Local Anesthetics: Clinical Application as Spinal Anesthesia
Local Anesthetics: Clinical Application as Epidural Anesthesia
Since epidural anesthetics can be infused through an epidural catheter, all types of drugs, including short-acting ones, can be administered. Chloroprocaine and lidocaine are examples of short and long-duration anesthetics, respectively. Bupivacaine...
