PY - 2015 T2 - Atlas of Pain Medicine Procedures AB - As surgical technology becomes less invasive, interventional pain physicians will play an increasing role in delivering this care. Facet mediated pain has historically been treated with medial branch blocks, intra-articular injections, and radiofrequency neurolysis. There has been an increased interest in treating facet mediated pain from a surgical standpoint. Since facet joints are synovial diarthrodial joints, surgical approaches have focused on joint immobilization or arthrodesis. One minimally invasive approach is percutaneous facet fusion (PFF) with allograft bone dowels.
