Debating "interventions" for chronic axial low back pain.
A physiatry journal club is being held on the nonsurgical treatment of chronic axial low back pain (LBP) with the use of interventional spinal procedures. The conference leader has asked the discussion to be based on a case presentation using medical evidence, socioeconomic, and medical ethics principles. The case is a 53-year-old man, Mr. Payne, who has chronic recurrent LBP. He lives in a lar...
متن کاملCorrelation between high-intensity zone on MRI and discography in patients with low back pain
The aim of this study was to analyze the correlation between high-intensity zone (HIZ) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of a lumbar disc and positive pain response assessed by discography for the diagnosis and treatment of discogenic low back pain (LBP). Thirty-seven patients aged 21 to 59 years with chronic LBP but without any neurological symptoms or lumbar disc herniation who underwent MR...
متن کاملReview Axial Loaded MRI of the Lumbar Spine
Magnetic resonance imaging is established as the technique of choice for assessment of degenerative disorders of the lumbar spine. However, it is routinely performed with the patient supine and the hips and knees flexed. The absence of axial loading and lumbar extension results in a maximization of spinal canal dimensions, which may in some cases, result in failure to demonstrate nerve root com...
متن کاملThe Prevalence of Low Back Pain and Its Relation With Backpack Weight Among Iranian Students
Purpose: Several studies have reported that musculoskeletal disorders and discomforts experienced by children and adolescent students are closely related to the weight of bags or backpacks carried by them. Since students are at growth and spinal development age, attention to the pressures on their bodies is important. These pressures can cause musculoskeletal problems and various growth disorde...
متن کاملSpinal cord stimulation with implanted epidural paddle lead relieves chronic axial low back pain
INTRODUCTION Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) provides significant relief for lumbosacral radiculopathy refractory to both medical and surgical treatment, but historically only offers limited relief for axial low back pain (LBP). We aim to evaluate the response of chronic axial LBP treated with SCS using a surgically implanted epidural paddle lead. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective r...
