Summary

Qualitative and quantitatively evaluate the pain control and incidence of adverse effects in patients undergoing corticosteroid infiltration and local anesthetic through sacral epidural puncture with ultrasound assistance or isolated use of fluoroscopy to aid puncture and location of the sacral epidural space. A group will be submitted to epidural corticosteroid infiltration associated with local anesthetic with the use of fluoroscopy for locating the sacral epidural space, which is currently the gold standard for this technique, while in another location group will be held with the use of ultrasound.
