Acute lumbosacral radicular syndrome is often a medical disorder of difficult management. Epidural steroid injection is a useful approach for the herniated disc and radiculitis. The transforaminal approach is usually considered more effective and target-specific, but it can be associated with permanent lower extremity paralysis. A caudal approach with an adjustable catheter has been widely used in adhesiolysis in chronic low back pain, but there are no reports of its application in acute radicular pain. The aim of this study is to assess the clinical effectiveness of epidural steroid injection by caudal approach with an adjustable catheter in patients with severe acute radicular pain.
