Compression can cause static back pain, radicular lower extremity pain, or neurogenic claudication. Radiological and clinical findings are needed to diagnose lumbar stenosis. In this framework, caudal epidural steroid injection (ESI) is a standard treatment. The volume injected and needle positioning are the main issues that could compromise the effectiveness of the epidural injection. However, ultrasound-guided caudal epidural injections have become more common in recent years. Since Klocke and colleagues described the ultra-sound-guided caudal block in 2003, it has grown in popularity. Multiple ethnic studies have reported ultrasound-guided caudal injection success rates of 96.9-100%. Color Doppler ultrasonography can also determine if a drug solution reaches the lumbosacral region. We enrolled 42 patients with lumbar spinal stenosis, persistent lumbosciatalgia, and neurogenic claudicatio unresponsive to painkillers who were not surgical candidates. Each patient receives four weekly injections for four weeks. If the patient responds to treatment but still has pain, monthly injections are needed to reach and maintain the benefit. Treatment will be changed if the patient does not respond after 4 caudal injections. Sterile caudal epidural injections are performed with ultrasound guidance and a spinal needle 21G. Triamcinolone 40 mg, levobupivacaine 10 mg, and physiological solution 10 ml are delivered. Each patient received an average of 4 injective treatments (4±2, Means 4, SD 2). Data analysis shows that the treatment reduced pain significantly before and after therapy, which persisted after 3 months. Caudal epidural injection is one of the most common conservative treatments for chronic low back pain with radiculopathy, and lidocaine alone or with steroids is effective. In this framework, the two main literature issues about caudal epidural injection effectiveness on lumbar pain are correct. Therefore, 10 ml is suitable and effective for treating symptoms without side effects. Pain reduction of over 50% from start to finish and three-month follow-up have shown significant results in pain control and disability improvement. Finally, caudal epidural injection for lumbar spinal stenosis symptoms is effective, safe, and provides long-term pain relief.</p>","PeriodicalId":46459,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Translational Myology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11264217/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140854133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, an early-stage diagnosis of breast cancer is of critical importance. Because ultrasound is one of the available, inexpensive, and minimally invasive techniques for distinguishing malignant from benign masses, a comparison of conventional ultrasound, color Doppler, and spectral Doppler findings can be useful. The purpose of this study was to determine the diagnostic value of sonographic indices, specifically Doppler parameters, in identifying the nature of breast masses. This is a cross-sectional study, with diagnostic value analysis. Before undergoing a biopsy, 80 patients with breast masses underwent B-mode and Doppler breast ultrasound. The ultrasound findings were then compared to pathologic results to determine which groups were malignant or benign. The resulting data were analyzed using statistical tests and diagnostic values with SPSS 22 software. B-mode grey-scale ultrasound indices such as mass shape, mass margin, mass orientation, and posterior features, as well as Doppler indices such as vascularity, RI (Resistive Index), PI (Pulsatility Index), and PSV (Peak Systolic Velocity), were found to be statistically significant with pathological findings. Color Doppler revealed vascularity in 65% of benign and 84% of malignant masses. The diagnostic value results revealed that mass shape, mass margin, mass orientation, and posterior features all play a significant role in predicting lesion malignancy, with a sensitivity of 92%, 58%, 64%, 56%, and specificity of 59%, 66%, 82%, and 84%, respectively.
