Abstract

Low back pain affects a considerable proportion of the population and can significantly decrease quality of life. Radiofrequency ablation is an emerging technique that may offer relief from pain for patients experiencing chronic low back pain. This systematic review of the procedure aimed to summarize its efficacy in the treatment of pain in different regions of the low back.
