Abstract:
The intervertebral disc disease is a group of clinical diseases with complex etiology, various clinical symptoms and poor conservative treatment effect. The traditional treatment methods include conservative treatment, local injection and open surgery. In recent years, minimally invasive spine surgery has made great progress and development, and its clinical effect has been fully affirmed. Coblation nucleoplasty (CN) has been mainly used in the treatment of contained disc herniation since it has been used in clinical treatment. Its application is not favorable because of narrow indications, uncertain clinical efficacy and other reasons. At present, the application of CN in the intervertebral disc diseases has been reported in many literatures, and its working principle, operation safety, indications and efficacy have been analyzed and extended. Those literatures play an important role in its clinical application. Therefore, in this paper, the application status of CN in the intervertebral disc diseases is reviewed.
