Prolapsed Intervertebral Disc

In India, nearly 80% of people have significant back pain due to lumbar pathology. In this case study patient’s main complaint was severe low backache, stiffness in the back due to which he was unable to do his routine activ- ities. He was diagnosed with Prolapsed intervertebral disc (PIVD) which can be correlated to katigatvata (low backache) which comes under vatavyadhi. Panchkarma therapies like katibasti and panchtikta ksheer basti in ka- la basti format are given with oral vatashamak medicines. In course of treatment satisfactory improvement was noted.

Acupuncture is often used for acute and chronic low back pain; however, its efficacy is controversial, primarily for acute low back pain (ALBP). Our case study suggests that single acupuncture could relieve ALBP within a short time without any adverse events.

Prolapsed Intervertebral Disc

Introduction: Open discectomy has been the gold standard of care for cases of Prolapsed intervertebral Disc. Tissue dissection is unavoidable in order to access the pathologic disc material. From skin incision, subcutaneous fat tissue, paraspinal muscles, ligamentum flavum, epidural fat, dura and nerve roots has to be encounter before reaching the disc material. With the in out transforaminal endoscopic technique only skin and subcutaneous tissue need to be bridge before reaching the disc material. This technique is also known as a targeted surgical technique. Minimal tissue injury is caused via this technique. Case report: We present 3 case series of prolapsed intervertebral disc which was treated with transforaminal endoscopic technique. Case 1: 49 year old presented with one year history of low back pain and left lower limb sciatica. Straight leg raising sign was positive. MRI showed 2 level disc bulge at L4L5, L5S1 with annular tear at L5S1. Case 2: 26 year old lady presented with 6 months history of low back pain and left lower limb sciatica. Straight leg raising sign was positive. MRI showed extruded disc at L4L5. Case 3: 28 year old lady presented with 8 months history of low back pain and left lower limb sciatica. Straight leg raising sign was positive. MRI showed extruded disc at L5S1 with annular tear. Results: All three patients underwent transformational discectomy. Case 1 and 2 were done under monitored anaesthesia control (MAC) and case 3 was done under epidural. All three patients had satisfactory  pain relief with complete resolve of straight leg raising (SLR) test. The 1st patient had longer recovery period possibly because of its chronicity of symptoms. Conclusion: Early recovery is expected hence early return to work can be accomplish. In the future this might be the gold standard of treating prolapsed intervertebral disc.

Objective: To determine the outcome of endoscopic discectomyin patients with lumbar prolapsed intervertebral disc in terms of back pain and leg pain using the visual analogue scale.Material and Methods: Descriptive case series, was conducted at, PINS, LGH Lahore for 6 months. 15 patients were included through non probability consecutive sampling that fulfilled inclusion criteria. All patients’ low back pain and leg pain was documented using visual analogue scale before and after 2 months of surgery.On the basis of VAS we calculated % age improvement of low back pain and leg pain after endoscopic discectomy, while ≥ 5 scale improvement was considered clinically significant.Results: Patients mean age was 44.46 years. Among them, 9 (60%) were males and 6(40%) were females. On average, the basal metabolic index (Kg/m2) was 29.29 However, the BMI of females was 31.76 and male was 27.65 Kg/m2. On average, the duration of symptoms was 8.05 months. On average, the Straight Leg Raise was 24.7o at the time of treatment. A decreased sensation was observed in L5 of 3 (20%) and in S1 of 4 (26.67%) participants. Whereas Absent sensation was observed in L5 of 3(20%) and in S1 of 5 (33.33%). Mean preoperative back pain and as well as leg pain was 7.05 that improved to 0.41 and 0.86 4 weeks post operatively.Conclusion: Endoscopic discectomy is equally effective in alleviating the symptoms without notable difference in surgical outcome.

Purpose Misophonia is a sound tolerance disorder condition in certain sounds that trigger intense emotional or physiological responses. While some persons may experience misophonia, a few patients suffer from misophonia. However, there is a dearth of literature on audiological assessment and management of persons with misophonia. The purpose of this report is to discuss the assessment of misophonia and highlight the management option that helped a patient with misophonia. Method A case study of a 26-year-old woman with the complaint of decreased tolerance to specific sounds affecting quality of life is reported. Audiological assessment differentiated misophonia from hyperacusis. Management included retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy based on the principles described by P. J. Jastreboff and Jastreboff (2014). A misophonia questionnaire was administered at regular intervals to monitor the effectiveness of therapy. Results A detailed case history and audiological evaluations including pure-tone audiogram and Johnson Hyperacusis Index revealed the presence of misophonia. The patient benefitted from intervention, and the scores of the misophonia questionnaire indicated a decrease in the severity of the problem. Conclusions It is important to differentially diagnose misophonia and hyperacusis in persons with sound tolerance disorders. Retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy can help patients who suffer from misophonia.
