outcomes and the cost-effectiveness of this procedure.


Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patient is skeletally mature and has at least moderate impairment in function,
experiences relief in flexion from his/her symptoms of leg/buttocks/groin pain, with
or without back pain, and has undergone at least 6 months of non-operative treatment;
