Background: Patients with failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) experience chronic back painfollowing spinalsurgery, and effective treatment is difficult because of multiple contributing factors.Case presentation: Here we report a case involving a ۷۲-year-old woman who experiencedrecurrent low backpain after undergoing two back surgeries. She was treated with erector spinae plane (ESP)block, which affected thedorsal rami of the spinal nerves from T۱۲ to L۵. Pain relief lasted for approximately ۱۰ h afterthe initial block, andsuccessful low back pain relief was achieved after a total of three trials.Conclusions: ESP block, which is an easy and safe procedure, can be used to treat FBSSassociatedlow back pain.
