Article Synopsis
- Discogenic chronic low back pain (cLBP) and radiculopathy are common and disabling, with traditional treatments often leading to further complications or degeneration of spinal discs.
- A new treatment strategy focuses on diagnosing and treating annulus fibrosus tears by using fibrin to seal these injuries and promote tissue growth, potentially offering a safer and more effective alternative.
- This method was tested in a retrospective cohort study involving patients who had not found relief from multiple prior treatments for cLBP lasting over six months, utilizing MRI for diagnosis.
