Management of diskogenic pain using epidural and intrathecal steroids.
Clinical Orthopaedics and related Research 1977 November
The use of methylprednisolone acetate (Depo-Medrol) injected by the epidural or intrathecal route for the relief of diskogenic back pain with or without radiculopathy is an adjunct to conservative management useful when conservative measures fail and surgical treatment is under consideration.
