Introduction: A primary cause of chronic low back pain, the most prevalent musculoskeletal condition worldwide, is anterior column pain. The focus of this study is to review current literature regarding procedural interventions for anterior column pain. The procedures under review include intradiscal hyaluronic acid (HA), disc allograft, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC), bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC), and steroid injections, as well as basivertebral nerve ablation (BVNA), biacuplasty, and intradiscal electrothermal therapy (IDET).
