Abstract:ObjectiveSpinal endoscopy radiofrequency is a minimally invasive technique for lumbar disc herniation (LDH) and low back pain (LBP). However, recurring LDH/LBP following spinal endoscopy radiofrequency is a significant problem. Paravertebral musculature plays a crucial role in spine stability and motor function, and the purpose of the present study was to identify whether patients’ baseline lumbar muscular electrophysiological function could be a predictor of recurring LDH/LBP.MethodsThis was a prospective fol… Show more
