Lumbar Radiofrequency Neurotomy

This pain management procedure, which is also called radiofrequency rhizotomy, is used to reduce or eliminate pain in spinal facets. Pain signals travel through medial nerve branches. Light electrical discharge is used to cut off the nerve, which innervates painful facet joint. This short, minimally invasive procedure is held under local anesthesia. A tube-like needle, called cannula is introduced with the help of fluoroscope near appropriate medial nerve branch.
