Cervical interlaminar epidural steroid injections are indicated for radicular pain with or without axial neck pain. The interlaminar approach is well suited for delivering medication to bilateral and/or multilevel cervical sites. C7-T1 level is typically targeted since it has the largest posterior to ...
Cervical disc disorders encountered in physiatric practice include herniated nucleus pulposus (HNP), degenerative disc disease (DDD), and internal disc disruption (IDD). HNP (seen in the image below) is defined as localized displacement of nucleus, carti
METHODS: Patients were randomly assigned to one of 2 groups: Group I patients received cervical interlaminar epidural injections of local anesthetic (lidocaine 0.5%, 5 mL); Group II patients received cervical interlaminar epidural injections with 0.5% lidocaine, 4 mL, mixed with 1 mL of non...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate epidurography contrast patterns in fluoroscopically guided cervical interlaminar epidural injections using the midline approach.All epidural injections were performed at the C6-7 level in the prone position. Epidurography was performed using a fixed amount of ...
