Measuring Dimensions of Lumbar Intervertebral Discs in Normal Subjects
Introduction: Disc degeneration is a natural aging process characterized by changes in appearance and chemical structure of the disc. This degeneration leads to back pain. In regard to the limitation of current therapeutical methods for patients with degenerated discs, arthroplasty has been suggested as an alternative method. To manufacture artificial discs for Iranians, determining normal lumb...
متن کاملAn Operative Series of Lumbar Intervertebral Discs
THIS is a review of one hundred cases taken from approximately five hundred cases operated upon in Musgrave Park Hospital during the past twelve years. These cases have been selected because of positive findings of disc prolapse demonstrated at operation. The time from operation varies from twelve years to one year, the average length of follow-up being seven years and the majority of cases bei...
متن کاملSympathetic afferent units from lumbar intervertebral discs.
To clarify the pathomechanisms of discogenic low back pain, the sympathetic afferent discharge originating from the L5-L6 disc via the L2 root were investigated neurophysiologically in 31 Lewis rats. Sympathetic afferent units were recorded from the L2 root connected to the lumbar sympathetic trunk by rami communicantes. The L5-L6 discs were mechanically probed, stimulated electrically to evoke...
متن کاملTreatment of lumbar intervertebral disc protrusions by manipulation.
From 1975 through 1983, a total of 517 patients with protruded lumbar discs were admitted for manipulative treatment. Of these, 76.8% had satisfactory results. There were 73 recurrences (14.1%) at intervals ranging from two months to 12 years. Forty-seven cases did not respond to manipulation. These results indicate that manipulation of the spine can be effective treatment for lumbar disc protr...
متن کاملFibroblast Transplantation Results to the Degenerated Rabbit Lumbar Intervertebral Discs
BACKGROUND Our study is an analysis of the histological and radiological changes in degenerated lumbar intervertebral discs, after transplantation of fibroblasts in rabbits. With that study we aimed to show the viability of the fibroblasts injected to the degenerated discs, and observe their potential for further studies. METHOD The apoptosis of the cell is one of the factors at the disc dege...
