Effect of Sarcopenia on the Outcomes of Radiofrequency Ablation of Medial Branch Nerves for Lumbar Facet Arthropathy in Patients Aged 60 Years and Older: A Retrospective Analysis

2025-06-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> /Objectives: Sarcopenia is characterized by the gradual and generalized loss of muscle mass, strength, and/or physical performance with advancing age. Ra-diofrequency ablation (RFA) of the medial branch nerves is a well-established and ef-fective intervention for treating lumbar facetogenic pain. Although sarcopenia is asso-ciated with poor outcomes following epidural steroid injections and l...
