Article Abstract

Background: The curative effect of sacral nerve magnetic stimulation on the neurogenic bladder (NB) after spinal cord injury (SCI) is unclear. This study made a meta-analysis of the curative effect of sacral nerve magnetic stimulation on the NB after SCI and put forward a theoretical basis for the clinical treatment of this disease.

Methods: The databases of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, and CBM were searched by computer, and the randomized controlled trials of sacral nerve magnetic stimulation in the treatment of NB after SCI were collected. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to September 25, 2023. Meta-analysis was performed with Stata 15.0 software.

Results: This study finally included 10 articles, including 537 patients. Meta-analysis shows that the sacral nerve magnetic stimulation treatment group can effectively improve urodynamics: the maximum bladder capacity increases (mean difference [MD], 40.76 [95% confidence interval (CI), 33.24-48.28]; P ˂ .05), the bladder capacity increases at the beginning of urination (MD, 12.82 [95% CI, 11.02-14.62]; P ˂ .05), and the residual urine volume decreases (MD, -38.08 [95% CI, -51.36 to -24.79]; P˂.05). In the aspect of urination diary, the sacral nerve magnetic stimulation treatment group also has advantages compared with the conventional treatment group: the increase in single urine volume (MD, 22.49 [95% CI, 18.68-26.30]; P˂.05), the maximum urine volume (MD, 32.84 [95% CI, 22.37-43.30]; P˂.05), and the decrease in urination times (MD, -2.23 [95% CI, -3.13 to -1.33]; P˂.05). After the treatment of sacral nerve magnetic stimulation, the quality of life of patients can be improved: quality-of-life score (MD, -0.62 [95% CI, -0.91 to -0.34]; P˂.05).

Conclusion: Combined with functional magnetic stimulation of the sacral nerve, routine treatment is superior to routine treatment in improving the clinical symptoms of patients with NB after SCI.

This report presents the case of a 36-year-old man complaining of chronic low back pain and numbness along the posterolateral surface of the right leg. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a disc degeneration and protrusion at the L-S level and an extensive fluid-equivalent formation with a craniocaudal dimension of 8 cm at the S-S level. Initially, due to the minimal clinical complaints, the cyst was considered asymptomatic.

The high incidence and prevalence of herpes infections pose a significant health burden worldwide. Herpes simplex virus infections are the cause of herpes labialis, genital herpes or herpes keratitis and in rare cases life-threatening herpes encephalitis, meningitis or disseminated disease. After primary infection, herpes simplex viruses (HSVes) establish latency in the trigeminal and sacral ganglia and at least 30 % of patients experience clinically manifestant recurrences for life.

Objective: The objective of this study was to introduce and evaluate foraminoplastic inferior pedicle subtraction osteotomy (FiPSO), a novel technique that involves downward resection of the pedicle and vertebral body, aimed at addressing rigid lower lumbar kyphosis.

Methods: The clinical records were reviewed of the patients who underwent corrective surgery from January 2012 through December 2021 for adult spinal deformity using a combination of procedures: pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) at the lumbar level and spinopelvic fixation. Inclusion criteria included patients older than 40 years with sagittal imbalance symptoms and significant radiographic findings: sagittal vertical axis (SVA) > 50 mm, pelvic tilt (PT) > 25°, or pelvic incidence (PI) minus lumbar lordosis (LL) > 10°.

Background And Aims: The sacral erector spinae plane block (SESPB) is emerging as a promising ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia technique for postoperative pain management in various surgical procedures. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the efficacy of SESPB when used in combination with spinal anaesthesia.

Methods: We conducted a search of PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, ClinicalTrials.

Introduction: Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is a treatment option for children with refractory bladder and bowel dysfunction. Prior investigations have shown children may achieve cure of their symptoms following SNM implants and subsequently have their devices explanted. Herein, we present a 13-year experience of pediatric SNM placements and evaluate the likelihood of SNM explantation for any cause, for symptom resolution or complications.
