Abstract
- The article presents an experimental animal study that determined whether corticosteroids produce additional benefit to nerve root infiltration (NRI) for experimental lumbar disc herniation. The study revealed that NRI prevented mechanical allodynia but there were no additional benefits identified. The findings suggest that corticosteroid administration may be unnecessary for NRI.
