Lumbar Syndrome

Summary Acute lumbar syndrome occurs suddenly and is accompanied with strong pain in the lower part of the back. The most frequent APLS causes are vertebral (herniation of intervertebral disc, subluxation of intervertebral disc, subluxation of intervertebral joint, fracture of vertebra -traumatic or pathological), or extravertebral (subluxation of sacroiliac joint, acute bursitis of iliolumbar segment, muscle injuries or injuries of tendo-ligamentous apparatus of lumbosacral region).The treatment of acute lumbar painful syndrome is classified as medical, alternatively medical, surgical and combined. On the basis of durable experience, “Praxis method” as a treatment of lumbar pain (general and acute) is being applied in the Centre for Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation “Praxis” in Sarajevo. During the period from 1996 to 2000, the total number of 5.663 patients were examined in the centre “Praxis”. Out of that number, 17.7% (1.003) of patients had acute lumbar painful syndrome (ALPS). Immediately after the therapeutic manipulation, which included “Praxis method, 31.5% (317) patients experienced the cessation of pains followed by ending of the treatment. The length of treatment for the rest of patients lasted: 1-7 days in 412 or 41.07% of patients, 8-21 days in 195 or 19.48% of patients, and more than 21 days in 79 or 7.88% of patients. For all patients (1.003) the average treatment duration was 6.6 days. The recidivation occurred in 127 patients (12.66%).Throughout the treatment successfulness estimation according to clinical results scaled from 0 to 5, it was confirmed that out of the total number of 831 patients (82.85%) results were excellent in 459 patients (45.76%) or very good in 372 patients (35.09%).The average age of patients was ranging between 35 and 45 years (621 patients or 61.9%). The male/female distribution was 2:1.

Mckenzie Method

A program utilizing patient response to repeated lumbar movements (including flexion, extension, lateral bending and rotation), known as the McKenzie method, has now been demonstrated to be twice as effective in alleviating low back pain compared to traction and back schools. This is a capsule summary of the “Extrac '86” study as detailed in The Journal of Musculoskeletal Medicine 1987; vol. 4(9):27–34 and 4(12):63–74.

Background/Aim. The quality of life of lumbar radiculopathy patients conditioned by their health status is a result of both their subjective perception of the disease and their objective health status. The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of life of lumbar radiculopathy patients under conservative treatment by means of generic and another lumbar syndrome specific questionnaires. Methods. A total of 50 patients (33 males, 17 females average age 46.1 years,) under conservative treatment in a hospital over four weeks were included in the study. They were interviewed using two questionnaires: the SF36 (Short form (36) Health Survey) generic questionnaire measuring eight domains of their quality of life summarized into two main ones (i.e. overall physical and overall mental health), and the lumbar syndrome specific North American Spine Society - Low Back Pain Outcome Instrument (NASS LBP), a questionnaire measuring four domains (functional limitations, motor and sensitive neurological symptoms, expectations from the treatment and satisfaction with it). Results. The values of physical health domain was low as 31.1 at the beginning of the treatment, were rising over the following six months and dropped insignificantly after four years (42.1/48.7 /47.0) The mental health values (47.2) did not alter as compared to that of the general population. A values of the quality of life stabilized within six months. The neurological symptoms domain did not correlate with other value scales and domains. Conclusion. The quality of life of lumbar radiculopathy patients was impaired only from its physical aspect, but after conservative treatment it improved over the following six months. After four years there is an insignificant drop of all quality of life values, indicating a need for a longer term monitoring of there patients.

Summary. At present, no scheme of approach to surgical treatment of patients with hip-lumbar syndrome (HLS) depending on the type of vertical posture and the type of bone formation and progression of coxarthrosis is developed. The decision of these questions, interesting from the scientific and practical point of view, is an actual task of modern orthopedics and defines features of preoperative planning of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with HLS. Objective: to determine the features of preoperative planning of total hip arthroplasty in patients with hip-lumbar syndrome. Materials and Methods. The basis for the development of recommendations for preoperative planning of THA in patients with HLS was the data of retrospective analysis of medical histories of 138 patients who underwent hip arthroplasty in the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology of Adults of SI “Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics of NAMS of Ukraine”. The data of the clinical study of 506 patients with idiopathic, dysplastic and post-traumatic coxarthrosis conducted earlier were also taken into account, and the tactics of treatment in cementless hip arthroplasty was developed. Results. It was determined that the vertical posture affects the progression of coxarthrosis and the nature of the lesion of the lumbar spine in patients with HLS. Patients with a certain hypolordotic posture and a rapid course of coxarthrosis are recommended to undergo primary decompression of the spinal roots and THA at the second stage. In other cases, the initial implementation of THA is recommended. Recommendations for the use of the type and method of fixation and coverage of the leg of the endoprosthesis depending on the type of bone formation in the HLS of the examined patients are developed. Conclusions. Taking into account the features of preoperative planning of THA in patients with HLS will reduce the number of negative results and complications of this category of orthopedic patients.
