Lumbar curvature may lead to the occurrence of lumbar disc degeneration. Fear of movement may worsen their disc herniation and cause further pain and injury. LDH conditions impact the individuals’ quality of life, to explore the relationship between lumbar curve, muscle strength, fear of movement and functional disability among patients with LDH. Methods: An electronic search was conducted on PubMed, Medline, Science Direct, Springerlink, Google Scholar and a hand search from reference lists was reviewed. Publications were included in human studies, patients 25 - 85 years of age, original studies and published in English language journals from January 2002 to December 2023. Result: In total, 64 articles were researched through the online search engines, and 9 papers were found through manual searches of reference lists. As a result, a total of 11 articles were included for the purpose of this review. The comprehensive analysis revealed the presence of eight cross-sectional studies, two retrospective studies and one experimental study. A minimum of 25 participants and a maximum of 360 participants were included. Ten studies included both genders, only one studies included healthy adults and patients with LDH but these studies didn’t mention gender. Results showed that the factors influencing LDH can be categorized into non-modifiable factors, such as gender, age, height or others. Modifiable factors included increased BMI, DM, smoking, alcohol, employment status, lifestyle and health problems or psychology. Conclusion: Females with greater VASC may be at risk of LDH. The lumbar extensor muscles indicated a localized disc herniation or nerve root pathology in patients with LDH. The fear of movement may lead to psychological consequences and reduce functional disability among patients with LDH.展开更多

Diagnosis of both Lumbar Disc Herniation and Lumbar Spine Stenosis depends on clinical findings as well as radiological investigations. Treatment of choice of these conditions is on the basis of the patient conditions. Surgical treatment is the option only when the conservative treatment does not improve the patient’s clinical condition. Advancement and improvement of the technology have resulted in the traditional open surgical treatment into minimal invasive surgery. Intervention of the different surgical instruments with expert spinal surgeons had made percutaneous endoscopic lumbar Spine surgery as one of the preferred choices of surgery for treating Lumbar Disc Herniation and Lumbar Spine Stenosis. The concept of percutaneous endoscopic surgery for lumbar region is to provide surgical options without producing iatrogenic morbidity associated with the open surgical procedures. Conventionally, there are different approaches/techniques for Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Spine Surgery, but in this review we are mainly focusing on the Transforaminal Technique. Regarding the Lumbar Disc Herniation treatment with transforaminal approach, a number of articles have been published due to which we mainly focused on those articles which were published after 2009 onwards. While fewer articles related to Lumbar Spine Stenosis treatment with Transforaminal approach were found, we tried to brief out all those articles. On the basis of comparative study of different surgeries done for Lumbar Disc Herniation and Lumbar Spine Stenosis, Percutaneous Transforaminal endoscopic Lumbar Surgery provides a substantial benefit. Transforaminal approach for treating Lumbar Disc Herniation and Lumbar Spine Stenosis is safe and effective. The Percutaneous Transforaminal Endoscopic Lumbar Surgery has advantage as it is performed under local anesthesia with shorter length of hospitalization and early return to normal life. The clinical outcome of the patient that underwent Percutaneous Transforaminal Endoscopic Lumbar Surgery for Lumbar Disc Herniation and Lumbar Spine Stenosis is quite good in regard of its fewer complication and more benefits.展开更多

文摘Objective:To investigate the early efficacy of two approaches for lumbar disc herniation under spinal endoscopy.Methods:45 cases of lumbar disc herniation were divided into interlaminar approach(27 cases)and intervertebral foramen approach(18 cases)according to different surgical approaches.Postoperative pain visual analogue scale(VAS)was used.Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA)lumbar spine score(JOA)and modified Macnab criteria were used to evaluate the postoperative outcome.Results:(1)VAS score.There is no interaction effect between the access mode and the time factor(F=0.620,P=0.603).There were statistically significant differences in pain VAS scores between preoperative and postoperative time points,that is,there was a time effect(F=2157.488,P=0.000).The overall VAS scores of the two groups were compared,and the difference was not statistically significant,that is,there was no grouping effect(F=2.610,P=0.114).The VAS score of pain in both groups decreased with time,and the differences between the two groups were not statistically significant before surgery,at discharge,1 month after surgery and 3 months after surgery(t=0.067,P=0.947;t=1.415,P=0.164;t=0.564,P=0.575;t=0.442,P=0.660);JOA score.There is no interaction effect between the access mode and the time factor(F=1.296,P=0.280).The difference of JOA score between preoperative and postoperative time points was statistically significant,that is,there was a time effect(F=1464.830,P=0.000).JOA scores of the two groups showed an increasing trend with time,and the differences between the two groups were not statistically significant before surgery,at discharge,1 month after surgery and 3 months after surgery(t=0.067,P=0.947;t=1.415,P=0.164;t=0.564,P=0.575;t=0.442,P=0.660);(2)The improved Macnab standard was used to evaluate the excellent and good rate at 3 months after surgery.In the interlaminar group,12 cases were excellent,13 cases were good and 2 cases were fair.The excellent and good rate was 92.6%.In the intervertebral foramen group,7 cases were excellent,10 cases were good and 1 case was fair.The excellent and good rate was 94.4%.The overall excellent and good rate of the two groups was 93.3%.Conclusion:Both approaches can achieve satisfactory efficacy in the treatment of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation,which is worthy of clinical application.However,for beginners,l5-s1 lumbar disc herniation is more suitable for intervertebral disc approach,so as to achieve satisfactory efficacy.
