Popis: Low back pain (lumbar pain) is one of the most common causes of disability in the population. In cases where conservative treatment of discogenic or musculoskeletal low back pain does not have a positive effect, interventional methods of diagnosis and treatment are used, which are developing actively on the background of rapid technological progress. Being on the border of interdisciplinary interaction, interventional methods can significantly shorten the duration of conservative therapy and, in many cases, avoid surgical decompressive interventions, which are associated with a considerable risk of complications. The methods, efficacy and safety of epidural administration of glucocorticoids for discogenic radiculopathy and lumbar stenosis as well as the methods of radiofrequency denervation for musculoskeletal pain due to the facet joints and the sacroiliac joint involvement are discussed. The possibilities of drug therapy for musculoskeletal pain of the lumbar spine, and combination of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and a vitamin B complex, are discussed.
