The objective of this paper is to review the literature of cervical transforaminal injections, resulting complications, and to suggest a safe technique.
A systematic review of the literature was performed. Both the MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were searched for any article relating to cervical epidural injections, cervical transforaminal injections, and complications relating to cervical epidural or cervical transforaminal injections. Finally, a method for performing a cervical transforaminal injection safely is described.
The review of the literature revealed: 1. There is a paucity of literature regarding cervical transforaminal injections; 2. There is no accepted standard technique for performing cervical transforaminal injections; and 3. More research and study must be performed regarding the risk versus benefit, technique, and outcome of cervical transforaminal injections.
本文旨在回顾颈椎经椎间孔注射的文献、相关并发症,并提出一种安全的技术。
进行了系统的文献综述。检索了MEDLINE和EMBASE数据库,查找与颈椎硬膜外注射、颈椎经椎间孔注射以及与颈椎硬膜外或颈椎经椎间孔注射相关并发症的任何文章。最后,描述了一种安全进行颈椎经椎间孔注射的方法。
文献综述显示:1. 关于颈椎经椎间孔注射的文献较少;2. 没有公认的进行颈椎经椎间孔注射的标准技术;3. 必须对颈椎经椎间孔注射的风险与益处、技术和结果进行更多的研究。
