Skipping Posterior Dynamic Transpedicular Stabilization for Distant Segment Degenerative Disease

Skipping Posterior Dynamic Transpedicular Stabilization for Distant Segment Degenerative Disease

Objective. To date, there is still no consensus on the treatment of spinal degenerative disease. Current surgical techniques to manage painful spinal disorders are imperfect. In this paper, we aimed to evaluate the prospective results of posterior transpedicular dynamic stabilization, a novel surgical approach that skips the segments that do not produce pain. This technique has been proven biom...

A Rehabilitation Protocol for Patients with Lumbar Degenerative Disc Disease Treated with Posterior Transpedicular Dynamic Stabilization.

AIM To evaluate the efficacy of the rehabilitation protocol on patients with lumbar degenerative disc disease after posterior transpedicular dynamic stabilization (PTDS) surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients (n=50) with single level lumbar degenerative disc disease were recruited for this study. Patients had PTDS surgery with hinged screws. A rehabilitation program was applied for all patien...

Low back pain is described as a deep pain surrounding the waist in a “belt style,” frequently seen in the midline, but which may spread to the hips and upper thighs. In recent years, degenerative disc disease has been observed as the most important result of low back pain. Tearing of the disc capsule, including nerve root irritation from the chemical substances that are expelled (chemical nocic...

Comparison of the Dynesys Dynamic Stabilization System and Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion for Lumbar Degenerative Disease

BACKGROUND There have been few studies comparing the clinical and radiographic outcomes between the Dynesys dynamic stabilization system and posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF). The objective of this study is to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of Dynesys and PLIF for lumbar degenerative disease. METHODS Of 96 patients with lumbar degenerative disease included in this retro...
