Add to ORKGWhereas the existence of “facet syndrome ” is debatable, most clinicians currently agree that lumbar z-joints are a common source of low back pain. This premise is strongly supported by numerous anatomic and clinical studies. BACKGROUND The concept of primary facet joint (zygapophysial or z-joint) pain has long been compelling. In 1911, Goldthwait1 proposed that the facet joints were responsible for a signifi cant amount of low back pain. Ghormley2 coined the term “facet syndrome ” in 1933 and recommended surgical fusion to treat this disorder. Local anesthetic injection into the facet joint was fi rst described b
