Title: [Evaluation of 5 years of nucleolysis treatment in 150 cases of radiculalgia and 10 cases of lumbago of disk origin]. Author: Troisier O, Dewerpe P, Pelleray B. Journal: Rev Rhum Mal Osteoartic; 1982 Apr; 49(5):377-83. PubMed ID: 6213024. Abstract: The action of chemical nucleolysis on lumbar disc/root problems was assessed on the basis of 4 parameters: root pain, neurological deficit, residual lumbar pain and spinal mobility evaluated by the Shöber test, at 4 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years and more. With time, mean results concerning root pain disappeared; neurological deficit and root pain progressed in parallel with good or excellent results of the order of 75 percent; residual lumbar pain remained stable, null in 30 percent of cases and very troublesome in 15 per cent of cases. Mobility increased with time: when good or excellent, nor poor results were seen in terms of lumbar pain or root pain.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
