Article Synopsis
- Doctors tried using a special fat graft during back surgery to help stop leg pain from nerve issues.
- They looked at 69 patients, some got the fat graft and some didn't, to see how it affected their pain over time.
- The study found that while most patients felt better after surgery, the fat graft didn’t really help improve pain more than not using it, so they suggest not using it anymore.
