Spinal pain is the most common cause of presentation to the neurosurgery outpatient clinic. Although surgical interventions are
required in some of the patients, most are treated with conservative treatments. Injections applied to the vertebrae and neuro-ablative
methods have taken their place among conservative treatment methods. In the last 10 years, spinal injections have been applied to
neurosurgery practice and frequently applied in our country and in the world. This has changed the perspective of neurosurgeons
regarding pain of spinal origin and increased the satisfaction of the patients. Percutaneous minimally invasive procedures applied
to the spine are of interest to both functional neurosurgery and minimally invasive spinal surgery. In this section, we will talk about
injection and neuroablation procedures used in the treatment of spinal pain.
