dc.description.abstractTwenty seven patients who had been diagnosed as facet syndrome with clinical signs and computed tomography were included in the study. All patients received medical therapy for two weeks and patients allocated into two groups as benefit from medical therapy or not. Local anesthetic injections into facet joints were applied to 15 patients unresponsive to medical therapy. Facet joint injections were performed under fluoroscopy in two levels as degenerated segment and upper of this segment and metil prednisolone 10 mg (0.5 ml) and bupivacaine 10 mg 82 ml) were injected to each segment. All patients were controlled before therapy and 1 week, 1 month and 3 months later of therapy and evaluated as Visual Analoque Scale, Modify Schoeber test and Roland and Morris Scale and results were recorded. All of patients except one have been improved by facet joint injections, we concluded that lumbar facet joint injection could be a useful diagnostic and therapeutic procedure in the lumbar facet syndrome if patient selection made carefully.en_US
