Intradiscal electrothermal therapy: a preliminary report.
Internal disc disruption is a common cause of disabling low back pain in a substantial number of young, healthy adults. A clinical diagnosis of internal disruption, in absence of objective clinical findings, is convincingly established only by means of provocation discography. Intradiscal electrothermal therapy has been shown to be effective in managing chronic disabling discogenic pain. This p...
متن کامل[Intradiscal electrothermal therapy (IDET)].
Low back pain is a major physical and socioeconomic problem. A significant percentage is attributable to internal disc disruption (IDD). The management of IDD has been limited to conservative treatment or to operative treatment. Intradiscal electrothermal therapy (IDET) is a new minimal-invasive therapy. In carefully selected patients, it could be an effective treatment alternative. Further stu...
متن کاملThermal-Induced Osteonecrosis of Adjacent Vertebra after Intradiscal Electrothermal Therapy
A 42-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with complaints of low back pain and intermittent right thigh pain. Twelve weeks before admission, the patient received intradiscal electrothermal therapy (IDET) at a local hospital. The patient still reported low back pain after the procedure that was managed with narcotic analgesics. Follow-up magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed, and h...
متن کاملResults of Intradiscal Pulsed Radiofrequency for Lumbar Discogenic Pain: Comparison with Intradiscal Electrothermal Therapy
BACKGROUND We have developed an intradiscal pulsed radiofrequency (Disc PRF) technique, using Diskit II® needles (NeuroTherm, Wilmington, MA, USA), as a minimally invasive treatment option for chronic discogenic low back pain (LBP). The purpose of this study was to compare the representative outcomes of Disc PRF and Intradiscal Electrothermal Therapy (IDET) in terms of pain relief and reduction...
متن کاملIntradiscal electrothermal therapy for chronic discogenic low back pain: a comparison of two heating protocols
Objectives. This study aims to evaluate the effect of intradiscal electrothermal therapy (IDET) applied in patients with chronic low back pain using two heating protocols. Methods. In this study, data of 50 patients who were exposed to percutaneous IDET using two heating protocols were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups: in Group 1 (n=25), maximum 750C catheter ...
