The Video Guided Catheter and endoscope are then advanced via the introducer into epidural space. Slow irrigation with saline allows visualization of epidural space by gentle distension. Adhesiolysis can be carried out under direct vision by blunt dissection of the adhesions using the tip of the video guided catheter. Blunt dissection coupled with hydrostatic distension of the epidural space thus creates a pocket through which injected drug can access symptomatic nerve roots.
