胸腰椎不稳与肠易激综合征

目的：探讨肠易激综合征的发病原因，分析脊柱不稳与肠易激综合征之间的关系。方法：选取2004年至2006年门诊诊治的82例（男24例，女58例；年龄15-〉61岁）肠易激综合征患者，全部采用从脊柱着手进行手法治疗，不用任何药物治疗。结果：82例治愈75例，好转7例。结论：胸腰椎不稳是肠易激综合征的直接发病原因，减少胸腰椎不稳对其周围神经或血管的压迫或刺激是治疗肠易激综合征简便而且有效的方法。

Relationship between irritable bowel syndrome and unstable thoracolumbar vertebrae

Objective: To explore the cause and mechanism of irritable bowel syndrome, and to study the relationship between irritable bowel syndrome and unstable thoracolumbar vertebrae. Methods: From 2004 to 2006,82 patients with irritable bowel syndrome were treated with manipulation thoracolumbar vertebrae without any drug using.
