MyrliMax® and Low Back Pain: A Multicentric, Observational, Post-Marketing Surveillance Study in Indian Patients Suffering from Chronic Low Back Pain of Various Pain Intensity.

Chronic low back pain (LBP) is the most common musculoskeletal condition affecting a person's quality of life. Over the past decades, a lot of work was done in an attempt to reduce the negative impact of LBP, and help patients recover and maintain a better quality of life. Nevertheless, there is still a lot to be done to fully understand the problem of underlying chronic LBP and a wide gap that exist between basic science and applied rehabilitation research on LBP.

Posterior lumbar interbody fusion versus intertransverse fusion in the treatment of lumbar spondylolisthesis.

Purpose: To compare 2 methods of fusion in the treatment of lumbar spondylolisthesis: posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) and intertransverse fusion (ITF).

Methods: 20 patients with lumbar spondylolisthesis were randomly allocated to one of 2 groups: decompression, posterior instrumentation, and PLIF (n=10) or decompression, posterior instrumentation, and ITF (n=10). The Oswestry low back pain disability questionnaire was used for clinical assessment.

Pseudoaneurysm of anterior tibial artery following tibial nailing: a case report.

Interlocking nailing is a widely accepted and performed treatment for tibial shaft fractures. The addition of percutaneously placed transfixation screws increases the stabilisation provided by intramedullary nailing; however, the technical complexity associated with the procedure has introduced new potential complications. We report a pseudoaneurysm of the anterior tibial artery caused by a proximal interlocking screw after intramedullary nailing surgery to repair a tibial shaft fracture.
