Neurolysis Procedure Cost at Vivantes Hospital Group

Neurolysis is a procedure that utilizes chemical or physical agents to disrupt the transmission of nerve signals to the brain. This procedure causes temporary degeneration of targeted nerve fibers while promoting lasting and sometimes permanent relief from pain.

Neurolysis is performed by using absolute alcohol, but other chemicals such as phenol, or other techniques such as radiofrequency or laser ablation have been studied. To aid in the procedure, fluoroscopy or CT guidance is used.
