The association of spinal osteoarthritis with lumbar lordosis
BACKGROUND Careful review of published evidence has led to the postulate that the degree of lumbar lordosis may possibly influence the development and progression of spinal osteoarthritis, just as misalignment does in other joints. Spinal degeneration can ensue from the asymmetrical distribution of loads. The resultant lesions lead to a domino- like breakdown of the normal morphology, degenerat...
متن کاملComparison of Extubation of Patients in Prone versus Supine Position in workers Undergoing Lumbar Disc Surgery
Introduction: This study compared the extubation of patients in prone versus supine positions in patients undergoing lumbar disc surgery. Methods: In this single-blind clinical trial, 60 patients who were candidates for elective lumbar disc surgery were selected and randomly assigned into two groups of 30 patients. All patients primarily underwent surgery in the prone position. After surgery a...
متن کاملComparison of the Sagittal Spine Lordosis by Supine Computed Tomography and Upright Conventional Radiographs in Patients with Spinal Trauma
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective data analysis. Objective. To compare the sagittal lordosis of the lumbar spine by supine computed tomography (CT) and upright conventional radiographs. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA There is sparse data about position and modality dependent changes of radiographic measurements in the sagittal lumbar spine. METHODS The anatomical and functional Cobb angles of the thor...
متن کاملAssociation of Rs1676486 genetic polymorphism and lumbar disc degeneration in Iranian population
Background: lumbar disc degeneration is a multifactorial degenerative disease which is affected by genetic inheritance and environmental factors. Type XI collagen is important for organization of the extracellular matrix and cartilage collagen construction. Rs1676486 is a SNP that causes the conversion of C-T, resulting in a change in the expression of the collagen 11 alpha chain. The T allele ...
متن کاملLumbar Lordosis of Spinal Stenosis Patients during Intraoperative Prone Positioning.
BACKGROUND To evaluate the effect of spondylolisthesis on lumbar lordosis on the OSI (Jackson; Orthopaedic Systems Inc.) frame. Restoration of lumbar lordosis is important for maintaining sagittal balance. Physiologic lumbar lordosis has to be gained by intraoperative prone positioning with a hip extension and posterior instrumentation technique. There are some debates about changing lumbar lor...
