Abstract

Lumbar spinal stenosis is a painful and potentially disabling condition often encountered in older adults. it is defined as any narrowing of the lumbar spinal canal, nerve root canal or inververtebral foramina. in the pathogenesis of lumbar spinal stenosis the degenerative process of the lumbar spine is the main component producing the compression of neural tissue in the spinal and/or nerve root canal. Successful management of lumbar spinal stenosis requires accurate recognisition of the clinical syndrome. Such recognition is complicated by the frequent coexistence of morphological lumbar spinal canal narrowing without clinical expression or by lumbar spondylosis which produces mechanical lumbar pain unrelated to the compressive effects of narrowing of the lumbar spinal canal. The aim of this study was to evaluate the symptoms and functional disability caused by lumbar spinal stenosis and therapy in patients over 60 years old. The functional disability was assessed with Oswestry Disability Questionnaire. The mean value of Oswesrty Disability score was 44.3±15 for men, 47.4±12 women. Back and leg pain were the most common symptoms. %48.6 of patients underwent surgery. in conclusion, lumbar spinal stenosis can cause significant disability and pain.

Özet

Lumbar spinal stenoz sıklıkla yaşlılarda görülen, ağrıya ve özürlülüğe neden olabilen bir durumdur ve lumbar spinal kanal, sinir kökü kanalı ve intervertebral foramenlerde daralma olması olarak tanımlanabilir. Lumbar spinal stenoz patogenezinde; lumbar omurgadaki dejeneratif değişikliklerin, spinal kanal ve/veya sinir kökü kanalında nöral dokuların kompresyonuna neden olması en önemli bileşendir. Başarılı tedavi için bu klinik sendromun doğru tanımlanması gerekir. Ancak bu tanımlama klinik bulgu olmaksızın morfolojik lumbar spinal kanal daralmasının veya kanalın daralmasının bası etkisi olmaksızın mekanik bel ağrısına neden olan spinal spondilozun sıklıkla birlikte olması nedeniyle zor olabilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı 60 yaş üzerindeki bireylerde lumbar spinal stenoz sendromuna bağlı semptomların sıklığını, fonksiyonel özürlülüğü ve tedavileri değerlendirmektir. Tüm gruplarda fonksiyonel özürlülük, Oswestry Özürlülük sorgu formu ile değerlendirildi. Ortalama Oswestry skoru erkeklerde 44.3±15, kadınlarda 47.4±12 olarak bulundu. Bel ve bacak ağrısı en sık görülen semptomlardı. Çalışmaya katılan bireylerin %48.6'sına cerrahi tedavi uygulandı. Sonuç olarak, lumbar dar kanal sendromu önemli özürlülüğe ve ağrıya neden olabilir.
