No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The endoscopic discectomy has rapidly developed and increased need by patients. This procedure is widely performed by interventional pain physicians as well as by spine surgeons because it requires no general anesthesia or admission to a hospital. Many studies were reported that corticosteroid injection can inhibit persistent postoperative pain in lumbar discectomy. However, data of perioperative epidural steroids after an endoscopic discectomy is lacking.
