Abstract
|
|
|
|
Bertolotti’s syndrome refers to a total or partial unilateral or bilateral fusion of the transverse process of the lowest lumbar vertebra to the sacrum. These anomalies articulate or fuse with the sacrum or ilium and are associated with low back pain. But there is no agreement as to the best method of treatment for Bertolotti’s syndrome patients. We present a case report of a patient with symptomatic Bertolotti’s syndrome managed successfully with fluoroscopically guided steroid injection.
