    AbstractThe authors tried to assess the effectiveness of the treatment with epidural steroid injections in cases with lumbar discopathy and chronic ischialgia++. Thirty patients were given one or two injections of Depo-Medrol or Polcortolon with added bupivacaine++ into the epidural space. The same number of patients were treated without such injections. Control examinations after 21 days showed greater and earlier improvement after Depo-Medrol . The results of Polcortolon were less evident. No side effects were observed.
