椎间盘源性下腰痛的影像学诊断 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
椎间盘内免疫反应或化学性刺激所产生的炎症介质可使间盘内神经组织致敏,即使在没有间盘突出的情况下也可导致腰痛-即椎间盘源性下腰痛,CT/间盘造影与腰椎核磁图像是诊断椎间盘源性下腰痛的重要依据。CT/间盘造影可以详细观察间盘内病变程度;造影过程中出现的诱发痛可以可靠地提示疼痛来源。腰椎核磁图像上纤维环的高信号区、终板信号变化是间盘内炎症反应的影像学表现。结合CT/间盘造影与腰椎核磁图像所提供的信息,对椎间盘源性下腰痛的诊断有极大的帮助。 相似文献

MRI高信号区与椎间盘造影在椎间盘源性腰痛诊断中的相关性研究 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
目的 研究腰椎间盘MRI高信号区(HIZ)与椎间盘造影诱发疼痛反应之间的关系,为椎间盘源性下腰痛诊断和治疗提供参考.方法 对37例长期慢性下腰痛、无典型的神经根性症状和体征,且CT证实无椎间盘突出的患者行MRI检查和腰椎间盘造影.分析造影后的X线片和CT片,并结合造影时诱发的疼痛反应,比较其与腰椎间盘MRI高信号区之间的关系.结果 37例患者共行98个腰椎间盘造影,21个椎间盘疼痛反应阳性,其中有HIZ的间盘10个,占47.6%.77个疼痛反应阴性的椎间盘中,有HIZ的间盘29个,占37.6%.纤维环破裂程度分级越高,MRI出现高信号区的比例也越高,说明有高信号区的纤维环破裂程度高,无高信号区的纤维环破裂程度低(P<0.01);而高信号区与造影疼痛反应阳性之间并无明显一致性(P>0.05).结论 MRI高信号区在诊断椎间盘源性腰痛中仅为提示性和筛选性的影像学征象,不能替代椎间盘造影的金标准. 相似文献

椎间盘退行性变是脊柱退行性疾病的根本原因。腰间盘突出症,颈椎病,椎管狭窄,脊柱滑脱以及间盘源性腰痛的起因均与椎间盘的变性和损伤有密切关系。椎间盘作为脊柱椎体的连接部分具有支持、稳定、运动等多种功能。它的有效功能维持是椎间盘内部生物学改变与外界承重负荷的生物力学改变共同作用的结果。所以,在间盘退行性变的治疗中不仅要强调调整外界的负荷作用,如休息、肌肉锻炼、药物治疗、支具治疗,甚至手术切除间盘、脊柱融合和内固定等,更要从间盘本身的改变中去进一步了解间盘的退变机理,寻找预防和治疗间盘退行性变的根本方法和途径。 相似文献

CT/discograms of 107 low-back patients were classified by annular degeneration, annular disruption, and pain response. These parameters were compared with the heights of the corresponding discs. Disc height correlated significantly with degenerative annular changes. Comparison of the painless and exact reproduction groups at the L5-S1 level showed a significant increase in exact pain reproduction in narrow discs compared with normal discs. Discs demonstrating slight degenerative changes were often painful but narrowing was detected only when degeneration increased to moderate or severe levels. Some severely degenerated discs were painless and only part of the severe group was narrow. Measuring disc height is a poor method for detecting early, painful degeneration changes. 相似文献

Pain provocation and disc deterioration by age. A CT/discography study in a low-back pain population 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
H Vanharanta B L Sachs D D Ohnmeiss C Aprill M Spivey R D Guyer R F Rashbaum S H Hochschuler A Terry D Selby 《Spine》1989,14(4):420-423
The computed tomography (CT)/discograms and discographic pain provocation reports of 291 clinical patients, 790 discs (mean age, 38; range, 17-79) were collected. The CT/discograms were classified separating anular disruption and degeneration and recording the pain provoked during discography as no pain, dissimilar, similar, or exact reproduction of the patient's clinical pain. Nondegenerated discs usually were found to be painless, and deteriorated discs painful. The proportion of severely degenerated but painless discs increased with age, as did the discs producing dissimilar pain. This may help explain the poor correlation of low-back pain with radiographic degenerative changes reported in previous epidemiologic studies. 相似文献

Two cases of low-back pain and sciatica following total hip replacement are reported. Both patients were operated upon and after lumbar decompression were free of pain. A theory is presented to suggest that the lengthening of the limb after total hip replacement puts excess tension on the spinal nerves and, in conjunction with preexisting degenerative disc disease, will precipitate low-back pain and sciatica. 相似文献

STUDY DESIGN: Prospective case controlled. OBJECTIVE: To determine the outcome after microdiscectomy in patients with disc herniation, concordant sciatica, and low-back pain with Modic I and II degenerative changes compared with similar patients without Modic changes. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: The decision to perform a microdiscectomy versus a fusion or total disc replacement in a patient with a disc herniation and sciatica may be confounded by the presence of low-back pain, degenerative disc disease, and marrow and endplate (Modic) changes. METHODS: Thirty consecutive patients underwent a microdiscectomy by a single surgeon. Group 1 consisted of 15 patients, 6 men and 9 women, with a mean age of 36.7 years (range, 21 to 48 y), with Modic I and II changes. Group 2 contained 15 patients, 9 men and 6 women, with a mean age of 34.1 years (range, 20 to 68 y), without Modic changes. The average duration of low-back pain before surgery was 25.6 months (range 4 to 120 mo) in group 1 and 17.5 months (range 5 to 120 mo) in group 2. The visual analog scale (VAS) was used to grade low-back pain and the Oswestry score was used to grade overall disability. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in preoperative sciatica, low-back pain, VAS or Oswestry scores for group 1 versus group 2 patients. Postoperatively, all patents had improved sciatica and resolution of any nerve tension sign. Eighty-six percent of patients in group 1 versus 93% of patients in group 2 had improvements in postoperative VAS score for low-back pain at 6 months. Average improvement within each group was 67% and 75%, respectively. VAS scores for low-back pain at 6 months improved from 6.9 to 2.3 (P=0.0005) in group 1 and 6.3 to 1.6 (P=0.0002) in group 2. Group 1 and 2 had 89% and 100% of patients show improvement in postoperative Oswestry score at 6 months with an average improvement of 58% and 84%, respectively. Oswestry scores at 6 months improved from 68.7% to 28.8% (P=0.0007) in group 1 and 61.2% to 9.9% (P=0.00003) in group 2. CONCLUSIONS: There was a trend toward greater improvement in Oswestry scores in patients without Modic changes (P=0.09). Both groups reported statistically significant improvement in sciatica, low-back pain, and disability after microdiscectomy. Microdiscectomy was therefore an effective treatment for disc herniation and concordant sciatica despite low-back pain and Modic I and II degenerative changes. LEVELS OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic II. 相似文献

Stress discography is that done during the time in which the subject's pain is present at a significant level of intensity. This prospective study examines the findings in 200 patients who were evaluated for low-back pain. A standardized injection technique was used and the contrast pattern within the disc was studied radiographically and with CT scanning. Pain response was recorded. Familiar low-back pain was reproduced in all cases, and familiar leg pain in 46% of cases. Of 549 discs studied, 319 reproduced familiar pain, an average of 1.6 discs per patient. Pain reproduction occurred in 69% of the L5 discs, 62% of the L4 discs, and 25% of the L3 discs. Internal disc disruption was present in 302 discs, but extruded annular material was found in only 19. Stress discography is a useful diagnostic study in evaluating patients with low-back pain. 相似文献

The relationship of pain provocation to lumbar disc deterioration as seen by CT/discography 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
H Vanharanta B L Sachs M A Spivey R D Guyer S H Hochschuler R F Rashbaum R G Johnson D Ohnmeiss V Mooney 《Spine》1987,12(3):295-298
The CT/discographic findings from 225 discs in 91 low-back pain patients were compared to the pain provocation during the injection of contrast into the disc. The radiographic appearance of disc deterioration demonstrating disc degeneration and annular disruption of each disc was classified separately using a fourpoint scale: normal, slight, moderate, or severe. Pain reaction to the discogram at each level was recorded as follows: no pain, dissimilar pain, similar pain, or exact reproduction of the patient's clinical pain. This more precise analysis demonstrated a significant relationship between pain and deterioration of discs. The CT/discogram presents an axial view of the disc that allows a subgrouping of disc deterioration that can discriminate between peripheral deterioration (degeneration) and internal deterioration (disruption). The disruption supposedly occurs earlier and is more likely to be the source of exact pain reproduction. 相似文献

Magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of disc degeneration: correlation with discography 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19
One hundred and one disc levels in 36 patients with low-back pain were studied with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (T2-weighted) sagittal images and conventional roentgenographic discography to detect early disc degeneration. Thirty-nine discs also were evaluated after discography with roentgenographic CT MRI findings were compared with discography results. MRI was 99% accurate in predicting normality or abnormality as determined by discography. Changes in disc signal on MRI accurately reflected the presence or absence of degenerative changes seen on discography in patients with low-back pain. Clinically, MRI is a useful technique for detecting early disc degeneration and for assessing the affected disc level and adjacent levels in patients with low-back pain and spondylolithesis. 相似文献

Summary Fifty-seven patients with low-back pain were evaluated immediately prior to a discography examination by means of an electrical tool which produced bony vibration to the lumbar spinal processes. The vibrator was composed of a standard electric toothbrush shaft (Braun) with a blunt head instead of the brush. The lumbar spinal processes were compressed one by one for a few seconds with this blunt, vibrating tool. The patient's pain experience provoked by vibration was compared with that from injections during discography. A good correlation was found between these two examinations when patients with previously operated backs and painful, prolapsed discs were excluded: sensitivity was 0.96 and specificity 0.72. Prolapsed, but discographically painful discs were always painless in the vibration examination. The local, non-invasive bony vibration stimulation test is an easy, quick, safe, inexpensive and reliable method for examining intradiscal pain. 相似文献

Computed tomography, electrodiagnostic and clinical findings in chronic workers' compensation patients with back and leg pain 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
One hundred patients with complaints of low-back pain and leg pain, consistent with a diagnosis of sciatica, were evaluated. All patients had complaints for longer than 6 months and had recently undergone electrodiagnostic testing and computed tomography (CT). Correlation was made between symptoms, straight leg raising, clinical neurological deficits, electrodiagnostic and CT findings. The radiation of pain above or below the knee and pain on straight leg raising did not show a high correlation with each other or with neurological deficits or CT findings. Electrodiagnostic studies often defined a radiculopathy in patients with equivocal clinical signs. CT findings did not predict the nature of symptoms or clinical and electrodiagnostic findings. Electrodiagnostic abnormalities showed the greatest ability to predict CT abnormalities. It is concluded that in chronic sciatica patients, no single diagnostic parameter is conclusive and a combination of clinical and laboratory findings is necessary to reach a diagnosis. In addition, many assumptions, valid in patients with acute pain cannot be extrapolated to patients with chronic sciatica. 相似文献

Background contextThe pathophysiology underlying degenerative disc disease and its implication in painful syndromes remain unclear. However, spine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can demonstrate changes in disc water content and the annulus; provocative discography purportedly identifies degenerate discs causing serious low back pain; and biochemical assays have identified local inflammatory markers. No study to date has correlated pain on disc injection during discography evaluation with relevant MRI findings and biochemical markers.PurposeThe purpose of this study was to correlate concordant pain on during discography to biochemical markers obtained by disc lavage and MRI findings.Study designThis is a Phase 1 Diagnostic Test Assessment Cohort Study (Sackett and Haynes).Patient sampleThe patient sample included 21 symptomatic patients with suspected discogenic pain and three Phase 1 control subjects.Outcome measuresThe outcome measures included discography pain scores, MRI degenerative grades, and immunoreactivity to various inflammatory cytokine concentrations present in disc lavage samples.MethodsTwenty-one symptomatic patients with lumbar degenerative disc disease and three control subjects underwent discography, MRI, and biochemical analysis of disc lavage fluid. Lumbar MRI was scored for Pfirrmann grading of the lumbar discs, and annular disruption was identified by nuclear disc lavage. Disc lavage samples were analyzed for biochemical markers by high-sensitivity immunoassay.ResultsEighty-three discs from 24 patients were studied: 67 discs from 21 patients with axial back pain (suspected discogenic pain group) and 16 discs from 3 scoliosis patients without back pain (Phase 1 control subjects). Among the biochemical markers surveyed, interferon gamma (IFN-γ) immunoreactivity was most consistently identified in patients with axial back pain. Discs with annular disruption and concordant pain reproduction at a visual analog scale of 7 to 10/10 had greater IFN-γ immunoreactivity than those without this finding (p=.003); however, at least some IFN-γ immunoreactivity was found in all but one disc in the symptomatic group.ConclusionsAmong the potential inflammatory markers tested in this Phase 1 study, IFN-γ immunoreactivity was most commonly elevated in discogram “positive” discs but absent in asymptomatic controls. However, this marker was also frequently elevated in degenerative but “negative” discography discs. From these findings, Phase 2 and Phase 3 validity studies are reasonable to pursue. Phase 4 utility studies may be performed concurrently to assess this method's predictive value in outcome studies. 相似文献
