Chronic low back pain affects a significant portion of patients worldwide and is a major contributor to patient disability; however, it is a difficult problem to diagnose and treat. The prevailing model of chronic low back pain has presumed to follow a discogenic model, but recent studies have shown a vertebrogenic model that involves the basivertebral nerve (BVN). Radiofrequency ablation of the BVN has emerged as a possible nonsurgical therapy for vertebrogenic low back pain. The objective of this manuscript is to provide a comprehensive review of vertebrogenic pain diagnosis and our current understanding of BVN ablation as treatment.
慢性下腰痛影响着全球相当一部分患者,是导致患者残疾的主要原因;然而,它是一个难以诊断和治疗的问题。慢性下腰痛的主流模型一直假定遵循椎间盘源性模型,但最近的研究显示了一种涉及椎基底神经(BVN)的椎体源性模型。BVN射频消融已成为椎体源性下腰痛一种可能的非手术治疗方法。本文的目的是对椎体源性疼痛的诊断以及我们目前对BVN消融治疗的理解进行全面综述。
