Abstract:
Objective To investigate the diagnosis method of intervertebral disc low back pain and the best treatment clinical efficacy. Methods The imaging data of 132 cases with intervertebral disc low back pain diagnosed by discography for disc imaging was retrospectively analyzed from October 2001 to October 2008. Randomly divided into three groups: group A of pereutaneous laser disc decompression in 63 cases of gasification, group B extraperitoneal anterior disectomy, Cage fusion 21 cases, group C posterior fusion after disectomy arch root 48 cases of screw fixation. Observed in patients with postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) score improvement. Results MRI of lumbar intervertebral disc on T_2-weightod lesions as low signal was important. VAS after treatment in three groups followed by lower values to reduce, group A was (9.7 ± 0.9) points, group B was (7.4 ± 1.2) points, group C was (6.9 ± 1.4) points. There were statistically significance between group A and group B, C (P< 0.05). ODI in order to reduce the value of reducing, group A was (19.4 ± 1.4) points, group B was (18.8 ± 2.9) points, group C was (16.5 ± 2.1) points. There were statistically significance between group A and group B, C (P< 0.05). Conclusions Discography is a reliable method to diagnose intervertebral disc low back pain. Percutaneens laser disc decompression compared with posterior or anterior disectomy and fusion combined with internal fixation has good results in improving pain and function of patients.
