腰椎间盘突出症引起的下腰痛是导致生理残疾的主要因素之一,中西医协作在治疗腰椎间盘突出症过程中可以发挥其各自的优势,有助于降低社会和家庭负担。结合目前国际上对于腰椎间盘突出症手术指征的界定,我们将腰椎间盘突出症分为保守治疗期、手术干预期、术后康复期3个阶段。本文从中西医协作角度出发,探索腰椎间盘突出症阶梯式治疗的意义、现状及未来的发展前景。

Low back pain caused by lumbar disc herniation is one of the main factors leading to physical disability. In the treatment of lumbar disc herniation, the collaboration of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine have their respective advantages, helping to reduce the burden of society and family. Based on the international surgical indications for lumbar disc herniation, we divided lumbar disc herniation into 3 stages, including conservative treatment stage, surgical intervention stage and postoperative rehabilitation stage. From the perspective of collaboration of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, we discussed the significance, status and future prospects of stepwise therapy for lumbar disc herniation.
