[Epidural analgesia in the treatment of the pain syndrome in degenerative dystrophic disorders of the lumbar spine].

Epidural analgesia (EA) with dicaine and morphine has been compared in 34 patients with pain syndrome caused by degenerative dystrophy of lumbar vertebrae. The advantages of EA with dicaine have been observed. 35.3% of patients have been subject to surgery. In the rest of patients pain syndrome was relieved. Radionuclide epidurography has shown that the volume of the anesthetic solution injected should not exceed 10 ml.

[Discogenic lumbosacral radiculitis].

A total of 74 patients with suspected discal hernia were studied. To clarify its diagnosis, epidural scintigraphy along with routine studies was used. The established diagnosis was verified during surgery. Carbonic acid laser was applied to 22 patients in addition to the conventional procedures.

[Diagnosis of spinal cord diseases using myeloscintigraphy].

Ninety-eight patients with a suspected spinal volumetric process were examined and treated. In addition to the routine examinations, modified myeloscintigraphy was performed in 48 patients in order to make an accurate diagnosis and to define process sites. Filling defect was the most common myeloscintigraphic symptom. This symptom was detected in 31 patients with spinal tumors and in 10 patients with another abnormality of the vertebral canal. Myeloscintigraphy was found to be of particular value in the diagnosis of spinal tumors. The technique allows minimum-size formations to be diagnosed even when there are no evidence for subarachnoidal space block.
