15 صفحه اولCartilage Endplate Thickness Variation Measured by Ultrashort Echo-Time MRI Is Associated with Adjacent Disc Degeneration.
STUDY DESIGN A magnetic resonance imaging study of human cadaver spines. OBJECTIVE To investigate associations between cartilage endplate (CEP) thickness and disc degeneration. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Damage to the CEP is associated with spinal injury and back pain. However, CEP morphology and its association with disc degeneration have not been well characterized. METHODS Ten lumbar m...
متن کاملComparison of the Extent of Degeneration among the Normal Disc, Immobilized Disc, and Immobilized Disc with an Endplate Fracture
BACKGROUND This study attempts to prove a cause and effect relationship between spine immobilization following posterior fixation for unstable burst fractures and degeneration observed following hardware removal. METHODS We enrolled 57 patients (259 intervertebral discs [IVDs]) who underwent only posterior instrumentation without fusion for thoracolumbar and lumbar unstable burst fractures. W...
متن کاملMicro-CT quantification of subchondral endplate changes in intervertebral disc degeneration.
BACKGROUND The intervertebral disc (IVD) is dependent on nutrient provision through a cartilage layer with underlying subchondral bone, analogous to joint cartilage. In the joint, subchondral bone remodeling has been associated with osteoarthritis (OA) progression due to compromised nutrient and gas diffusion and reduced structural support of the overlaying cartilage. However, subchondral bone ...
متن کاملComparison of animals used in disc research to human lumbar disc geometry.
STUDY DESIGN Measurement and normalization of disc geometry parameters for several animal models used in disc research. OBJECTIVES To compare normalized values of disc geometry to the human disc geometry to aid in the selection and interpretation of animal model studies. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Animal models are widely used to study intervertebral disc degeneration and to evaluate disc t...
