Demonstration of Lesions Produced by Cooled Radiofrequency Neurotomy for Chronic Osteoarthritic Knee Pain: A Case Report

This is a case demonstrating radiographic evidence of lesions created following cooled radiofrequency (cRF) neurotomy of the knee. A 67-year-old man presents with chronic left knee osteoarthritis, pain, and disability. After failed trial of conservative treatments, the patient underwent diagnostic genicular nerve blocks, and subsequent cRF neurotomy, of the left knee. Shortly after cRF, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the left knee was obtained. On MRI, lesions created by cRF ablation were identified.
