Caudal Neuroplasty

Founder and president of the World Institute of Pain Dr. Gabor Racz walks us through a caudal neuroplasty procedure. Dr. Racz starts by highlighting common catheterization errors and how to avoid them, including needle and catheter insertion and navigation of scar tissue.

He goes on to describe L5/S1 transforaminal catheterization techniques, including the benefits of curved needles as “percutaneous navigation devices.” Dr. Racz concludes with a discussion of patient outcomes from different segmental levels of lysis treatments.
