ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This study was conducted in order to evaluate effect and efficiency of selective spinal nerve root block for neuropathic pain patients with lower leg radiating pain. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
A total of 113 patients were evaluated and follow-up periods were a minimum of 12 months. They were divided into two groups group A included 41 patients with neuropathic pain and group B included 72 patients with simple lower leg radiating pain.RESULTS:
Fourteen (34.1%) patients in group A and 45 (62.5%) patients in group B had favorable results for selective spinal nerve block (p<0.05). Visual analog scale (VAS) was improved from 7.57 to 5.23 at 12 months in group A and from 7.11 to 3.49 at 12 months in group B.CONCLUSION:
The initial treatment period for group A was significantly later than in group B. For patients with neuropathic pain and radiculopathy, early assessment was recommended and early selective spinal nerve block could be a good treatment option for neuropathic pain patients.
