Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between intervertebral disc pressure and clinical efficacy after the minimally invasive treatment of cervical disc herniation. MethodsForty-seven patients with cervical disc herniation treated by disc radiofrequency ablation, and monitored the intervertebral disc pressure after that. Moreover, the correlation between the pressure and the clinical efficacy was observed. ResultsAll cases were successfully completed under pressure monitoring. Forty-seven cases underwent a follow-up of 1-25 months,according to JOA score,using postoperative improvement rate (Hirabashi formula) to assess the clinical efficacy. High efficacy in 25 cases,fine efficacy in 19 cases,good efficacy in 3 cases,high and fine efficacy rate was 93.6％ (44/47). The postoperative intervertebral discpressure was significantly correlated with improvement rate after cervical minimally invasive surgery (P ＜0.05). ConclusionsRadiofrequency ablation treatment of cervical disc herniation is safe and effective minimally invasive technique. If the pressure in the postoperative intervertebral disc is 3 kPa,it will get better prognosis.
