[Treatment of spondylogenic lumbosacral radiculitis with epidural novocaine-hydrocortisone blockades]. 1976

S A Afoshin, and A A Skoromets

The authors analyze some results in the treatment of 100 patients with spondilogenic sacro-lumbar radiculitis by epidural novocain-hydrocortisone blockades. The materials permit to substantiate indications, contraindications and some methodological approache in this form of treatment. In some cases epidural blockades were performed in combination with other forms of therapy (physiotherapeutical procedures, traction, analgetic drugs). A good therapeutic effect was seen in 88 patients.
