Lumbar Facet Joint Radiofrequency Ablation With a 3-Tined Cannula: A Technical Report and Observational Study
Conclusions: Our observational study suggests that lumbar facet joint RFA using the novel technique achieves significant pain relief. The larger lesions decrease the likelihood of missing the target nerve while obviating the need to conduct numerous lesions. Limiting is the single-center set-up with...

| Summary: | Conclusions: Our observational study suggests that lumbar facet joint RFA using the novel technique achieves significant pain relief. The larger lesions decrease the likelihood of missing the target nerve while obviating the need to conduct numerous lesions. Limiting is the single-center set-up with a relatively short-term follow-up duration. Randomized controlled clinical trials are warranted to confirm the efficacy of the novel RFA technique to treat lumbar facet joint pain. |
