What is Caudal epidural steroid injection?
Is another way to get steroids into and near the spinal cord/nerve root to assist in pain relief. The caudal injection will help the same pain problems that were discussed for the lumbar epidural steroid injection. The caudal injection has been used for many years in operating rooms for regional anesthesia in operating rooms.
The caudal injection with steroids was first described in 1953. Depending on your needs Dr. Dombrowski will suggest which procedure will give you the best chance to alleviate your pain.
The risks are the same as for the other described injections. The caudal approach is now used for other procedures to "access" the epidural space. This "access" is very important in patient with low back pain, that have failed traditional treatments. The specialized procedure is epidural lysis of adhesions and epiduraloscopy.
