The Use of Caudal Epidural Steroid for the Management of Intractable Coccygodynia
|
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Coccygodynia is a pain syndrome resulting from trauma, fractures, infection and tumor, and is usually amenable to conservative treatment. We present one case of coccygodynia that developed 2 days after percutaneous cordotomy done for pain control
of
cervix cancer unresponsive to conservative treatmetn which subsequently was treated with a caudal injection of lidocaine and triamcinolone.
Caudal epidural steroid injection is less invasive and has less potential for complication than the neurosurgical interruption of the pain pathway.
