26-MAY-2016  MAHMOUD ALI JABER  27 YEARS  EXTRUDED DISK L1-2 WITH LEFT DOWNWARD MIGRATION.

 

Anamnesis

bullet

The patient came to the clinic 24-May-2016 complaining of LBP with left sciatica for 1 month down to the gastrocnemius muscle. MRI lumbar spine performed 10-May-2016 showing huge disk L1-2 with left downward migration.

bullet

On examination: the patient is limping with mild scoliotic stance. SLRS was 30 degrees in the right with pain shooting to the left leg and 60 degrees left side with less pain. There is weak dorsiflexion left foot -4/5 and dyseasthesia of the left L1 territory.

bullet

Using the C-arm, the L1-2 level was identified and left L1 foraminotomy was achieved. The extruded disk was removed from left side and left sided cleaning of L1-2 was performed. Using MultiGen, stimulation of left nerve was achieved with 0.8 V. A bipolar pulsed mode RF with 42 Celsius, 240 sec, 2 Hz and 20 msec duration to left L1 root was achieved using 2 bended catheters 10 mm exposed length. Further motor stimulation done to the same root and the same response was noted. Routine closure of the wound.

bullet

Smooth postoperative recovery. The patient is sciatica free. The power of left foot normalized and he was sent to the ward.

Comments  

bullet

The patient still have an estimated postoperative recurrence around 7%, because the disc space is still not shallow.

This is the 59th case using the BPRF mode with MultiGen. This procedure regained routine acceptance  it became a usual part of the spine surgery. Click here for reference.
