如果您因椎间盘严重受损而出现腰痛
您的医疗保健提供者可能会建议您进行腰椎间盘置换术
你的腰椎由五块骨头组成
每一块都称为椎骨
这些椎骨保护您的下脊髓
每个椎骨之间都有一个柔软的组织垫,称为椎间盘
健康的椎间盘在椎骨之间提供足够的高度
让您的下背部弯曲并吸收压力
随着年龄的增长,椎间盘可能会变干、凸起并变得不那么灵活
突出的椎间盘会压迫您的脊神经
脊神经受压会导致背部和腿部疼痛
随着光盘变得越来越糟
其上方和下方的椎骨上可能会形成称为骨刺的小生长物
骨刺也可能会挤压你的脊神经
这会让你的双腿感到无力和麻木
为了开始手术,将在您的腹部切开一个切口
到达腰椎后
外科医生将移除磨损的椎间盘
接下来,外科医生将刮掉椎骨上方和下方的组织以暴露骨头
然后将人造椎间盘插入并附着在骨头上
手术结束时,您的皮肤切口将用缝线或手术胶水封闭
手术后您的背痛可能会减轻
并且您可以更轻松地移动背部

If you have lower back pain caused by a severely damaged disc
如果您因椎间盘严重受损而出现腰痛
your healthcare provider may advise you to have a lumbar disc replacement
您的医疗保健提供者可能会建议您进行腰椎间盘置换术
Your lumbar spine is made up of five bones
你的腰椎由五块骨头组成
Each one is called a vertebra
每一块都称为椎骨
These vertebrae protect your lower spinal cord
这些椎骨保护您的下脊髓
Between each vertebra is a soft cushion of tissue called an intervertebral disc
每个椎骨之间都有一个柔软的组织垫,称为椎间盘
Healthy discs provide enough height between vertebrae
健康的椎间盘在椎骨之间提供足够的高度
to allow your lower back to bend and absorb pressure
让您的下背部弯曲并吸收压力
As you get older the discs can dry out bulge and become less flexible
随着年龄的增长,椎间盘可能会变干、凸起并变得不那么灵活
A bulging disc can press against your spinal nerves
突出的椎间盘会压迫您的脊神经
Pressure on spinal nerves can cause pain in the back and legs
脊神经受压会导致背部和腿部疼痛
As the disc gets worse
随着光盘变得越来越糟
small growths called bone spurs may form on the vertebrae above and below it
其上方和下方的椎骨上可能会形成称为骨刺的小生长物
Bone spurs may also pinch your spinal nerves
骨刺也可能会挤压你的脊神经
This can make your legs feel weak and numb
这会让你的双腿感到无力和麻木
To start the procedure an incision will be made in your abdomen
为了开始手术,将在您的腹部切开一个切口
After reaching your lumbar spine
到达腰椎后
the surgeon will remove the worn out disc
外科医生将移除磨损的椎间盘
Next the surgeon will scrape tissue off the vertebrae above and below to expose the bone
接下来,外科医生将刮掉椎骨上方和下方的组织以暴露骨头
Then the man made disc will be inserted and attached to the bone
然后将人造椎间盘插入并附着在骨头上
At the end of the procedure your skin incision will be closed with sutures or surgical glue
手术结束时,您的皮肤切口将用缝线或手术胶水封闭
After the procedure you may have less back pain
手术后您的背痛可能会减轻
and you may be able to move your back more easily
并且您可以更轻松地移动背部
