BACKGROUND There are few published studies on the relationship between occupational lumbar load and facet joint degeneration (FJD). This cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate the effect of physical lumbar load on FJD by comparing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of firefighters (FFs) and hospital office workers (HOWs). METHODS We randomly sampled 341 male FFs and 80 male HO...
BACKGROUND Low back pain with or without lower extremity pain is the most common problem among chronic pain disorders with significant economic, social, and health impact. This study was conducted to determine the frequency of lumbar disc herniation and its different levels, among patients with chronic backache. METHODS This cross sectional study was conducted in the department of Neurosurger...
The influence of TSH on bones is still vastly unknown and the information that is known is considered controversial. This important relationship has not been studied in detail. The aim of our research was to assess the correlation between TSH, thyroid hormone and bone mineral density in children measured by DXA scanning. Our study group included 36 children (16 girls and 20 boys) mean age 12.9 ...
BACKGROUND Sagittal spinopelvic alignment changes associated with degenerative facet joint arthritis have been assessed in a few studies. It has been documented that patients with facet joint degeneration have higher pelvic incidence, but the relationship between facet joint degeneration and other sagittal spinopelvic alignment parameters is still disputed. Our purpose was to evaluate the corre...
Posteroanterior stiffness of the lumbar spine is influenced by factors, including trunk muscle activity and intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). Because these factors vary with breathing, this study investigated whether stiffness is modulated in a cyclical manner with respiration. A further aim was to investigate the relationship between stiffness and IAP or abdominal and paraspinal muscle activity....
STUDY DESIGN A retrospective study including 179 patients who underwent oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) at one institution. PURPOSE To report the complications associated with a minimally invasive technique of a retroperitoneal anterolateral approach to the lumbar spine. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Different approaches to the lumbar spine have been proposed, but they are associated with a...
OBJECTIVE To analyze the differences in the frequency of osteoporosis according to the skeletal site evaluated in a group of Spanish postmenopausal women. METHODS We reviewed the data of 987 postmenopausal women (mean age, 53.8±5.5 years). BMD status was evaluated by DXA. We used the WHO thresholds to classify the patients. T-score was obtained from the single evaluation of each lumbar verteb...
Meralgia paresthetica is a well-known sensory syndrome describing paresthesia and/or anesthesia in the anterolateral aspect of the thigh that is supplied by the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. Compression of the nerve usually occurs at the point where it passes between the anterior superior iliac spine and the inguinal ligament. Proximal lesions such as lumbar radiculopathy, lumbar disc hernia...
INTRODUCTION The reason we report this case is that spine injuries may well occur due to landmines similar to other injuries like traumatic limb amputations and more over they may be overlooked. CASE PRESENTATION The patient was 29-years-old Turkish male and was a member of the military. He detonated the landmine that caused his injuries while in a conflict zone. He had a right below knee and...
BACKGROUND The target of lumbar sympathetic ganglion block is the anterolateral surface of the L2, 3 and 4 vertebral bodies, where the lumbar sympathetic ganglion usually lies. In most cases, a block-needle is inserted approximately 5-8 cm lateral to spinous process on the skin and directed to the anterolateral surface of vertebral body obliquely. The purpose of this study is to determine the s...
