Abstract
Epidural neuroplasty is an available procedure for various causes of pain. Cervical epidural neuroplasty has a higher risk of side effects than that of lumbar, which can be a challenge for the operator. A 56-year-old female came to the pain clinic with severe neck pain caused by postlaminectomy syndrome. We inserted an epidural catheter from T3-4 level to C4-5 level. Confirming that contrast medium spreading epidural space at C7-T1, and then authors injected medication. The patient's pain was effectively reduced without side effects. In an area where it is not expected to secure an approach to the lesion, injection to the target point with steerable catheters is very helpful in relief of pain as a performing cervical epidural neuroplasty.
