Cervical Rhizotomy Failure Rate Posted: 08-11-04 23:37pm


I am looking into getting a rhizotomy on my neck. I have had chronic neck pain for years. I have had facets, blocks, oral meds and now my md wants to perform this treatment. What is the outcome, does it ever fail thanks,

Yes They Can Fail Posted: 08-15-04 03:19am


Is this procedure really appropriate?? I went to google.Com & searched under cervical rhizotomy & got alot of sites & yes this procedure can fail & from what I read I did wonder if this procedure was really what you needed - I suggest you google & check out the sites that come up for yourself.
