摘要 |
Objectives: To treat patients with chronic discogenic low back pain with intradiscal steroid injections (IDSI) and observe clinical outcomes and complications.
Methods: We studied 65 patients with chronic discogenic low back pain of more than 6 months’ duration, who underwent IDSI. All subjects underwent magnetic
resonance imaging to identify the degenerative discs, which had high-intensity zones at the posterior annulus and positive discographic examinations. We injected 1 ml of 1% xylocaine and 1 ml of 40 mg/ml triamcinolone acetonide mixture into the degenerative disc. All patients were monitored at 1, 3, 6,and 12 months postinjection. We used the Denis pain scale, Denis work scale, Roland-Morris scale, and finger-to-floor distance for clinical evaluation and all patients were monitored for at least 1 year.
Results: Fifty-two patients (80%) displayed improvement 1 month after undergoing IDSI and 47 (72%) continued to feel satisfied 12 months after undergoing this procedure. No complications were encountered.
Conclusion: IDSI appears to be a simple and safe treatment for chronic discogenic low back pain. Provided that the indication for IDSI is correct, clinical improvement can be expected. |
