To investigate the effect of oxygen-ozone (O2-O3) injection on thoracolumbar intervertebral disc herniation (IVDH) in dogs.
Ten herniated discs of five dogs were treated with percutaneous injection of an O2-O3 gas mixture with O3 concentration of 32 microg/microl intradiscally (1.5-2 microl) under fluoroscopy guidance.
Five weeks after treatment, the mean size of herniated discs was measured by computed tomography and showed significant reduction of disc volumes in all animals (8.8%+/-3.82%). The degree of shrinkage was negatively linearly correlated with disc mineralization (correlation coefficient=-0.636) and statistically significant at p<0.05. All five dogs regained their gait function and none recurred.
We conclude that intradiscal O2-O3 injection can decompress affected discs by disc shrinkage.
研究氧气-臭氧(O2-O3)注射对犬胸腰椎椎间盘突出症(IVDH)的影响。
在透视引导下,对5只犬的10个突出椎间盘经皮注射臭氧浓度为32微克/微升的O2-O3混合气体(1.5-2微升)至椎间盘内。
治疗5周后,通过计算机断层扫描测量突出椎间盘的平均大小,结果显示所有动物的椎间盘体积均显著减小(8.8%±3.82%)。椎间盘缩小程度与椎间盘矿化呈负线性相关(相关系数=-0.636),且在p<0.05时具有统计学意义。所有5只犬均恢复了步态功能,且无复发。
我们得出结论,椎间盘内注射O2-O3可通过椎间盘缩小使受影响的椎间盘减压。
