Epiduroscopy (Epidural Endoscopy)

Abstract: Epiduroscopy is a relatively new technique used in the evaluation and treatment of low back pain via advancements in optical fiber technology. As a minimally invasive endoscopic technique, it allows for direct endoscopic imaging of the epidural space and helps the patients for the pain management who having post-lumbar surgery syndrome (PLSS) and other cases of low back pain and radiculopathy. An advanced understanding of the anatomy of epidural space and adjacent structures are also essential for positive and… Show more

“…When the first studies on epiduroscopy were carried out, only the posterior epidural area was reached by the epiduroscopy method, while anatomical structures were displayed and pathological structures were distinguished. More recently, fibrotic structures and adhesions occurring in the posterior epidural area have been treated in patients with failed back surgery syndrome (1,18,19).…”

“…Epiduroscopy is a minimally invasive technique that has been frequently used in recent years for spinal diseases . Fundamentally, epiduroscopic procedures enable direct imaging of spinal structures in the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis and chronic lumbar and/or leg pain; dilution of biomechanical irrigators such as phospholipase A2 and tumor necrosis factor with saline; and targeted injections .…”
