Abstrakt:	This series of FactFinders presents a brief summary of the evidence and outlines recommendations to improve our understanding and management of several potential procedure-related complications. The evidence in support of the following facts is presented: (1) Multifidus Atrophy After Lumbar Medial Branch Radiofrequency Neurotomy (LMBRFN) -- There is no conclusive published literature indicating that LMBRFN leads to increased multifidus atrophy relative to natural history. High-quality prospective studies with a natural history comparison group evaluating immediate pre-procedure as well as post-procedure longitudinal cross-sectional imaging are needed to accurately assess for any possible influence of LMBRFN on multifidus atrophy as well as the clinical relevance. (2) Intradiscal Biologics -- Although the available evidence on intradiscal biologic interventions is limited, it nonetheless shows a non-zero risk of complications. Until larger sample sizes are reported, the actual magnitude of the risk cannot be ascertained. In the meantime, physicians who perform intradiscal injections of biologics should conscientiously consider the risk-benefit of these procedures. (3) Lumbar Facet Synovial Cyst Rupture -- There have been few reports of complications secondary to lumbar facet synovial cyst rupture. Risks of may include increased pain, infection, and nerve root compression.
