Degenerative disc disease:Degenerative disc disease(DDD) usually affects older people because it is caused by the effects of aging on the spine. beijing.ufh.com.cn beijing.ufh.com.cn 退行性椎间盘疾病:退行性椎间盘疾病多发病于老年人群。
Degenerative disc disease is a ubiquitously common process that occurs with normal aging but can give rise to back pain that can range from mild to severe. The pain and disability caused by DDD account for a very large number of doctor visits and are the most common causes of disability ...
Despite what the name suggests, degenerative disc disease is not a disease, but a condition in which natural, age-related wear-and-tear on a disc causes pain, instability, and other symptoms. This condition usually does not result in long-term disability, and most cases can be managed using...
The long term consequences are spinal stenosis (narrowing of openings that can place pressure on nerves and the spinal cord), which is a major cause of pain and disability. The incidence of degenerative disc disease is rising in the population and is the reason for over 90% of all spinal s...
Molecular biology of degenerative disc disease. The intervertebral disc is a complex anatomic and biochemical structure. It is composed primarily of fibrocytes and chondrocytes that are anatomically segr... BH Guiot,RG Fessler - 《Neurosurgery》 被引量: 377发表: 2000年 Molecular biology of ...
A primary cause of chronic low back pain and disability is lumbar degenerative disc disease (DDD). Surgical treatments are available for DDD including fusion or lumbar total disc replacement (TDR). Lumbar TDR is performed as a motion-preserving alternative to lumbar fusion. There are several ...
Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is associated with spinal pain often leading to long-term disability. However, the non-chondrodystrophic canine intervertebral disc is protected from the development of DDD, ostensibly due to its retention of notochordal cells (NC) in the nucleus pulposus (NP). In...
17,18 Arthritic joint changes and collapsing disc spaces can lead to encroachment on neural elements or musculoskeletal inflammation. Symptomatic degenerative disease of the spine is the leading cause of functional incapacity and chronic disability around the world, and research into management and ...
All cases were single-level degenerative disc diseases, including 1 case of L3,4, 8 cases of L4,5 and 6 cases of L5, S1. The course of the disease was 2 -10 years. Preoperatively, the score of visual analogue scale (VAS) was 8.9 ± 1.8 and the score of Oswestry disability index...
