Radio-Frequency Lesioning (Denervation) is a day case procedure which can take about 20 minutes under sedation where nerves to facet joints (medial branch nerves) are destroyed (sometimes called lesioning or denervation). The procedure is usually done when medial branch blocks produce a lot of pain relief for a short amount of time. The purpose is to try to give pain relief that lasts longer, sometimes even lasting a number of years. Usually, several injections are done during the same procedure. It is used for localised spinal pain in the lumbar, thoracic or cervical area where simpler measures have not helped.
There are different types of day surgery injections such as nerve root block/transforaminal epidural and also pulse radiofrequency (Procedures take about 15 minutes). Those injections are used mainly for localised radicular pain (sciatic leg or arm pain) pain where simpler measures have not helped enough. They are usually used in the lumbar and cervical regions. It may help your pain by reducing some of the pain signals.
