RESEARCH QUOTE OF THE MONTH:
February 1999
Disc Herniation Without Nerve Root Compression Does Not Cause Irritation;
Only Displaced Nuclear Material Will
The basic pathophysiologic mechanisms related to disc herniation and sciatica are poorly understood. Recently it was demonstrated that nucleus pulposus from an intervertebral disc could induce structural and functional changes in adjacent nerve roots when applied epidurally; however, it is not known if such changes are painful. In a model for inducing disc herniation in the rat, the researchers found that puncture of a lumbar disc with subsequent herniation of nucleus pulposus without nerve root compression, or chronic displacement of the 4th lumbar nerve root and ganglion, did not individually induce significant changes in thresholds for mechanical or thermal stimulation compared to sham-operated animals. However the combination of disc puncture and displacement induced a reduction of the threshold for thermal stimulation, indicating hyperalgesia, that was present 2 days after surgery and gradually recovered during a 14-day period. These data and the associated description of this new model for experimental disc herniation and sciatica.
