Epidural lysis of adhesions Epidural lysis of adhesions. A: Contrast injection revealing right-sided adhesions above the S1 nerve root represented by the filling defect. B: Contrast injection post–epidural lysis demonstrating elimination of adhesions with contrast flowing along the L4 and L5 nerve roots. L4, L4 vertebra; L5, L5 vertebra; S1, S1 vertebra.
