Abstract
Lumbar radiofrequency ablation is indicated for the treatment of chronic axial low back pain that is mediated by facet arthropathy which has failed more conservative treatment options.

Pearls and pitfalls are also discussed. In addition, an instructional procedure video (Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.lww.com/CLINSPINE/A90) accompanies this paper.
