Muscle Analyze In Patient With Disc Herniation

This study which was planned to investigate the factors affecting m. erector spinae (ES), m. multifidus (MF), m. psoas major (PM) and m. quadratus lumborum (QL), which stabilize the lumbar region in the case of disc herniation. In this study, the effects of disc herniation, herniation severity, age, and spinal biomechanics were investigated.

About this study

This study was carried out on 330 individuals with and without lumbar disc herniation. All individuals were divided into 3 groups according to their age. The inclusion criteria: Having only disc degeneration and not having any other neurological or orthopedic disease. Patients who had previous spinal surgery, patients with lumbar scoliosis, spondylolisthesis or structural defect in the sacrum were excluded from the study.

Treatment and study plan

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Diagnostic Test

Muscle analysis by Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Primary outcomes

  1. Muscle cross-area

    Time frame: 1 Month

    The cross-sectional area of the Multifidus, Erector Spina, Quadratus Lumborum, and Psoas Major muscles on both sides were measured using the T2-weighted axial Magnetig Resonance Imaging.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Lumbar Biomechanic

    Time frame: 1 Month

    Biomechanic analysis was performed by measuring the sagittal curve using T2-weighted sagittal images.
