SELD procedure. (a) Insertion of SELD catheter through a needle introduced into the sacral hiatus; (b) fluoroscopic epidurogram at caudal epidural space; (c) placing SELD catheter at disc level L4/5; (d) epiduroscopic view of epidural space. SELD = trans-sacral epiduroscopic laser decompression; Dorsal = dorsal side of the patient (ventral side of thecal sac); POD = postoperative duration.
