Lumbar degenerative disc disease (LDDD) is a leading cause of chronic lower back pain; however, lack clear diagnostic criteria and solid LDDD interventional therapies have made predicting the benefits therapeutic strategies challenging. Our goal to develop machine learning (ML)-based radiomic models based on pre-treatment imaging for outcomes lumbar nucleoplasty (LNP), which one LDDD.The input data included general patient characteristics, perioperative medical surgical details,...
Purpose: With advances in medical technology, the average lifespan has increased, leading to a growing significance of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), particularly elderly population.Most patients with iNPH have been treated either ventriculo-peritoneal shunts (VPS) or conservative measures.However, lumbo-peritoneal (LPS) emerged as an alternative treatment option for recent decades, extensive research still lacks comparing outcomes LPS those VPS non-surgical treatment.The...
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a poorly understood condition that presents with wide variety of symptoms, ranging from mild headaches to coma. It typically caused by continuous spontaneous leakage spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), resulting in orthostatic headaches. However, the appropriate management refractory SIH remains unclear. A 50-year-old man presented headache followed rapid decline mental status. The imaging findings were consistent diagnosis SIH, bilateral cerebral...
Abstract Purpose: Intradiscal biacuplasty (IDB) has been proven to be effective for treating lumbar degenerative disc disease (DDD). However, there hasn’t a reported prognostic factor IDB. The present study meticulously evaluate the general and radiographic features which may serve as markers predicting therapeutic outcome of Methods: Forty-two patients suffering from chronic discogenic low back pain more than 6 months subsequently received cool radiofrequency IDB were enrolled. Twenty-three...
