Abstract:
Objective To study the methods of clinic al diagnosis and treatment of chronic lumbar pain induced by chronic compartment s yndrome. Methods Thirty-nine patients with chronic lumbar pain induced by chronic compartment syndrome were recruited. Their diagno sis was confirmed by physical examination and measurement of of lumbar muscle in tra-compartment pressure. Micro-invasive opening decompression of the lumbar c ompartment was performed for treating these patients. Therapeutic exercises of t he lumbar and abdomen muscles were administered 2-days after operation. Results After treatment, the symptoms were significantly r elieved, distance of walk in creased as compared with those before operation. Th e ranges of trunk flexion and extension were increased. A comparison with the pr etreatment showed that the lumbar muscle intra-compartment pressures at rest du ring movement and 6 min after movement were decreased(6.6?0.7 vs 11.1?0.7),(16 0.3?11.15 vs 188.1?12.08)and(6.9?0.8 vs 14.1?1.2)mmHg, respectively ( P
