[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 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: 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 کاملEndplate fracture associated with intradiscal dextrose injection.
Intradiscal injections have been used for many years in the treatment of chronic pain. These injections consisted of many substances providing variable pain relief from discogenic pain. Following an intradiscal dextrose injection series, a physically active patient developed superior and inferior lumbar endplate fractures, producing a drastic increase in pain. The pathology of endplate fracture...
متن کاملSeat Design, Spine Curvature and Intradiscal Pressure
In nowdays digitalized and industrialized society, sitting is the most frequent posture at work, at school and also during the leisure time (surfing on the internet, gaming...). Because of gravity, the erect posture is associated with an increase of the lumbar intra-discal pressure, which has first been evidenced in the in vivo measurements of Nachemson [1-3]. In these studies, the authors depi...
