Safety and efficacy of a new percutaneously implantable interspinous process device

Safety and efficacy of a new percutaneously implantable interspinous process device
Conclusions  The In-space is a percutaneous treatment option of claudication in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. Compared with microsurgical decompression surgery, recurrence rate within 1 year is, however, high and the device seems not suitable for the treatment of low back pain. Therefore, the authors suggest that the device should presently be used primarily in controlled clinical trials in order to get more information concerning the optimal indication.

Primary carcinoid tumor of the filum terminale—a case report

Primary carcinoid tumor of the filum terminale—a case report
We report here about a 41-year-old patient with recurrent and progressive low back pain and bilateral S1 radiculopathy on admission. The patient underwent hemi-laminectomies of the vertebral bodies L5 and S1 and an en bloc resection of the tumor. Postoperative histopathological examination resulted in a well-differentiated intrathecal neuroendocrine tumor (carcinoid) of the terminal filum. Postoperative staging showed no pathological abnormalities and no tumor recurrence after 6 months. Even though rare, carcinoids should be considered as differential diagnosis of tumors occurring in the CNS.

Clinical Prediction Rules Currently Fail to Predict
Many musculoskeletal conditions represent only symptoms related to a myriad of possible underlying pathologies. For example, due to the many underlying causes of low back pain, no single treatment option including drugs, surgery, exercise or spinal manipulation successfully treats all patients.

Take Care of Your Back

Take Care of Your Back
When we are young we seem to think that we can stand up to anything. We think that our body parts are invincible and that we are going to live forever. We like to think that the human body is a complete, finished design and that it is the most advanced that it will ever be. We think that we are invincible. But, those of us who suffer from back pain caused by spinal stenosis, herniated, ruptured or bulging disc symptoms, or any form of degenerate disc disease or spinal malady will most likely disagree.
