ADHESIOLYSIS

Adhesiolysis is the dissolution of epidural adhesions, or scar tissue. This minimally invasive surgery was developed in the mid-1980s by Dr. Gabor Racz (Boswell et all, 2007) and continues to be an effective way to eliminate the chronic, intense scar-tissue related pain that often radiates from the lower spine to the legs (Machikanti et all, 2000).
