Purpose We aimed to analyze postoperative multidetector CT (MDCT) of acquired spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis after posterior lumbar laminectomy. Materials and Methods We enrolled 74 patients, from 2003 to 2017, who underwent posterior lumbar laminectomy with both pre and postoperative MDCT. The patients were categorized into the following two groups: group 1 without fusion and group 2 with fusion. We analyzed laminectomy width, level and location of spondylolysis or spondylolisthesis, facet changes, and fatty infiltration of paraspinal muscles on postoperative MDCT. Results Incidence of spondylolysis or spondylolisthesis was 4 of 20 patients in group 1 and 2 of 54 patients in group 2. The laminectomy width (%) was defined as the percentage of the width of laminectomy to total lamina length. Mean laminectomy width (%) in patients with spondylolysis or spondylolisthesis was 54.0 in group 1 and 53.2 in group 2, in contrast to that in patients without spondylolysis or spondylolisthesis, which was 35.0 in group 1. The spondylolysis was observed at the level of the laminectomy and below pars interarticularis in group 1 and below the fusion mass at isthmic region in group 2. Conclusion MDCT facilitates the diagnosis of postsurgical acquired spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis and demonstrates typical location of spondylolysis. Greater laminectomy width has been associated with occurrence of acquired spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis.

Spinal hematomas are a rare but serious complication that is typically observed in the epidural space. Spinal subdural hematomas are a dangerous clinical situation because of their potential to cause significant compression of the neural elements and can be mistaken easily for spinal epidural hematomas. This paper reports a case of a severe whole lumbar subdural hematoma after a simple epidural injection that was treated with surgical decompression with excellent clinical results.

소에서는 전신마취보다 전달마취로써 대부분의 수술을 수행한다. 본 연구는 9두의 소에서 요방 1혈(제 1요추 횡돌기의 전단), 요방 2혈(제 2요추 횡돌기 후단) 그리고 요방 4혈(제 4요추의 횡돌기 후단)에 침을 삽입하고 2.0~9.5volt와 주파수 30Hz로 통전하여 각종 수술을 실시하였다. 마취 도입에는 10~25분이 소요되었고, 9두중 7두(78%)에서 전침전달마취만으로, 2두 (22%)는 추가 침윤마취로 수술을 원만하게 완료할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과 소에 대한 전침전달마취는 복강수술을 위해서 특히 poor risk 상태에서는 활용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Purpose To investigate the MRI features associated with neural foraminal stenosis (NFS) in patients older than 60 years with lumbar (L) radiculopathy. Materials and Methods This study included 133 retrospectively selected patients older than 60 years with lumbar radiculopathy who had undergone a lumbar spine MRI (from January 2018 to April 2018). For L4/L5 and L5/sacral (S)1 levels, NFS was reviewed blindly by two radiologists. Spondylolisthesis, retrolisthesis, disc height loss, disc bulging/herniation/central canal stenosis, ligamentum flavum thickening, and facet hypertrophy were evaluated separately for the NFS and non-NFS groups, and they were compared using univariate and multivariate analyses. Results The univariate analysis revealed that disc height loss (p = 0.006) was associated with NFS for L4/L5. For L5/S1, both spondylolisthesis (p = 0.005) and facet hypertrophy (p = 0.006) were associated with NFS. The multivariate logistic analysis revealed that disc height loss was associated with NFS for L4/L5 [odds ratio (OR) = 4.272; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.736-10.514]. For L5/S1, spondylolisthesis (OR = 3.696; 95% CI 1.297-10.530) and facet hypertrophy (OR = 6.468; 95% CI 1.283-32.617) were associated with NFS. Conclusion Disc height loss was associated with NFS for L4/L5 and spondylolisthesis and facet hypertrophy were associated with NFS for L5/S1.

The purpose of this study was to compare and analyze changes in body composition and bone mineral density (BMD) during combined exercise in premenopausal women who did not take regular diet or regular physical activity within 6 months, In addition to being able to recognize the importance of pre-menopausal women's health and exercise, it also provides basic data for the development of educational programs for early prevention of osteoporosis prevention education I want to. The average age of the subjects in their 30s was 35.44 years and their height was 158.89 cm in their 30s. The average age of the subjects in their 40s was 41.89 and their average height was 160.78 cm in their 40s. Body composition, BMI, and body fat percentage were higher in the 30s, and bone mineral content, lean body mass, skeletal muscle mass, body weight, body fat mass and waist circumference were higher in their forties. Lumbar spine BMD and femur density were higher in their 30s than their 40s. Body composition, skeletal muscle mass, and fat mass increased in the 30s body composition by age - related complex exercise in premenopausal women, body fat mass, body fat percentage, waist circumference decreased. Body mass, body fat, body fat percentage, and BMI decreased in the 40s. The lumbar spine, the lumbar spine, the lumbar spine, and the femur were increased in the lumbar spine, the lumbar spine, the femur, and the femur. In the post-analysis results, changes in body composition were statistically significant due to decrease in muscle mass, body weight, body fat mass and BMI after combined exercise. In the change of bone density, lumbar spine BMD was measured as lumbar spine 1, lumbar spine 2, lumbar spine 3, And the femur density was increase.

This study is to examine effects of motorized flexion-distraction treatment on the pain, lumbosacral angle, lumbar lordosis angle, and lumbar 5 (L5) intervertebral disc angle in patients with chronic low back pain. We selected 30 cases of chronic low back pain, which were evenly divided into two groups: experimental group and control group. We applied the same hot pack, interferential current therapy, and ultrasound therapy to both groups. The experimental group had additional treatment of motrized flexion-distraction therapy and control group had additional of stretching exercise. For each subject, the pain, lumbosacral angle, lumbar lordosis angle, and lumbar 5 (L5) intervertebral disc angle were measured before and after treatment, While experimental groups showed significant improvements after treatment, more significant effects were found in the experimental group.

It is important to consider lumbar lordotic angle for setup of training program in field of sports and rehabilitaton to prevent unexpected posture deviation and back pain. The purpose of this study was to analyze the biomechanical impact of the level of lumbar lordosis angle during isokinetic exercise through dynamic analysis using a 3-dimensional musculoskeletal model. We made each models for normal lordosis, excessive lordosis, lumbar kyphosis, and hypo-lordosis according to lordotic angle and inputted experimental data as initial values to perform inverse dynamic analysis. Comparing the joint torques, the largest torque of excessive lordosis was 16.6% larger and lumbar kyphosis was 11.7% less than normal lordosis. There existed no significant difference in the compressive intervertebral forces of each lumbar joint (p>0.05), but statistically significant difference in the anterioposterior shear force (p<0.05). For system energy lumbar kyphosis required the least and most energy during flexion and extension respectively. Therefore during the rehabilitation process, more efficient training will be possible by taking into consideration not simply weight and height but biomechanical effects on the skeletal muscle system according to lumbar lordosis angles.

본 연구는 폐경전 성인여성들의 골격상태를 알아보고 신체계측 및 식이섭취실태가 골밀도에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해서 성인여성 61명을 대상으로 신체계측을 실시하고 24시간 회상법으로 영양소 및 주요 식품군의 식품섭취실태를 조사하고 DEXA를 사용하여 요추와 대퇴부 3부위의 골밀도를 측정하였다. 1) 대상자들의 평균 연령은 37세였으며, 평균 신장과 체중은 158.17cm, 54.55kg였으며, 평균 BMI와 WHR은 21.82, 0.78로 대상자들의 비만도는 정상이었다. 2) 평균 골밀도는 요추(L24) 1.04 g/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 대퇴경부 0.76g/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 대퇴전자부 0.66g/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 와드삼각부 0.69g/$\textrm{cm}^2$이었다. 3) T-score로 판정시 요추(L24)의 경우 골다공증군 3.28%, 골감소증군 14.75%, 대퇴경부의 경우 골다공증군 9.84%, 골감소증군 52.46%, 대퇴전자부의 경우 골다공증군 1.64%, 골감소증군 34.43%, 와드삼각부의 경우 골다공증군 6.56%, 골감소증군 45.90%였다. 4) 영양소중 칼슘(78.75%), 철분(69.75%) 및 비타민 A(92.17%) 영양소의 1일 평균 섭취량은 영양권장량보다 낮은 수준이었다. 5) 신체계측 및 영양소섭취량과 골밀도와의 상관관계분석에서 신체계측에서 체중(p < 0.05), 엉덩이둘레(p < 0.01), 제지방함량(p < 0.05), 총수분함량(p < 0.05)이 높을수록 요추골밀도가 유의하게 높았으나, 영양소섭취량은 골밀도와 유의한 상관성을 보이지 않았다. 6) 주요 식품군의 식품섭취실태와 골밀도와의 상관관계분석에서 버섯군의 식품섭취횟수(p < 0.05, p < 0.05)가 많을수록 요추(L3, L24)의 골밀도가 각각 유의하게 높았으며, 유지류군의 섭취식품수(p < 0.05)가 많을수록 와드삼각부의 골밀도가 유의하게 높았으나 곡류군의 섭취식품수(P < 0.01, p < 0.05, p < 0.05)가 많을수록 대퇴부 3부위 (대퇴경부, 대퇴전자부 및 와드삼각부)의 골밀도가 각각 유의하게 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 폐경전 성인여성의 경우 요추보다는 대퇴부 3부위의 경우 골다공증이나 골감소증의 비율이 상대적으로 높았으며, 특히 대퇴경부에 있어서 골다공증이나 골감소증의 비율이 가장 높았음을 알 수 있다. 또한 요추와 대퇴부 3부위의 골밀도는 영양소섭취량과 유의한 상관관계를 보이지 않았으나 체중, 엉덩이둘레 등의 신체계측요인과 곡류군, 버섯군 및 유지류군 등의 주요 식품군의 식품섭취실태와 밀접한 상관관계를 보이고 있음을 알 수 있다. 따라서 성인여성에 있어서 골밀도손실을 예방하기 위해 평상시 적절한 체중유지와 아울러 식생활지침에 있어서 주요식품군별로 적절한 섭취식품의 수, 섭취량 및 섭취빈도에 대한 영양교육이 필요한 것으로 생각된다.
