2 Original Article J Korean Soc Spine Surg Mar;24(1): Effectiveness of Selective Nerve Root Block for the Treatment of Single-Segment Lumbar Spinal Stenosis and Disc Herniation Tae Kyun Kim, M.D., Chang Su Kim, M.D.*, Young Chae Choi, M.D., Dae Moo Shim, M.D. Department of Orthopedic Surgery, School of Medicine, Wonkwang University Hospital, Iksan, Korea Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Kosin University College of Medicine, Busan, Korea* Study design: Retrospective clinical study. Objectives: To determine and compare the therapeutic effectiveness of selective nerve root block performed for single-segment spinal stenosis and disc herniation. Summary of Literature Review: The usefulness of selective nerve root block has been reported in several previous studies, but those results were aggregated across many diseases, making it difficult to estimate its effectiveness for each disease. Materials and Methods: From January 2008 to January 2013, among patients who had undergone selective nerve root block, those who were diagnosed with single-segment spinal stenosis or disc herniation were enrolled in this study. Among a total of 103 patients, 47 spinal stenosis patients were classified as group 1, and 56 disc herniation patients as group 2. Visual analog scale (VAS) scores and Kim s criteria were used to compare the reductions in radiating pain in each group. Results: In group 1, the VAS scores improved from 7.6 before the procedure to 2.6 and 3.3 at 1-month and 6-month follow-up visits, respectively. Kim s criteria also improved from a mean of 1.6 before the procedure to 2.9 at the 6-month follow-up. In group 2, the VAS scores improved from 7.8 before the procedure to 2.1 and 2.7 at 1-month and 6-month follow-up visits, respectively. Kim s criteria also improved from a mean of 1.8 before the procedure to 3.2 at the 6-month follow-up. Conclusions: Radiating pain in the lower limb due to spinal stenosis or disc herniation limited to a single segment was effectively controlled by selective nerve root block. Key words: Spinal stenosis, Disc herniation, Selective root block 서론 요통, 하지방사통및파행을유발하는요추의퇴행성질환으로는척추관협착증과추간판탈출증이있으며, 이중척추관의중심성협착증을제외하면비교적양호한자연경과를가지는것으로알려져있다. 1,2) 하요추부의신경근증으로인한통증에대한초기치료로대부분의경우보존적인치료를시행하며, 이중많게는 90% 까지호전되었다는보고도있다. 3) 그러나증상의초기발현시심한통증과불편감의호소로자연경과에따른증상호전을기다리지못하고수술적치료를시행하는경우가많으며, 이는수술로인한각종합병증및높은수술빈도로사회경제적인문제를야기하고있다. 4) 따라서신경근증증상의급성기에적절한보존적치료로통증을감소할후있다면, 수술의필요성을감소하는데효과적일것이다. Mcnab 5) 에의해처음소개된선택적신경근차단술은저자들 의이전의연구를통해신경근증환자에대한보존적치료로서 효과적이라는결론을얻을수있었으며, 6-8) 다수의저자들도그 유용성에대하여보고하였다. 9-15) 하지만기존의연구들은원인 질환에대한분류없이다양한질환군을대상으로분석하였기 때문에선택적신경근차단술이각각의질환에대하여어느정도 의효과를보이는지판단하기어려운점이있었다. 이에저자들 Received: March 23, 2015 Revised: September 6, 2016 Accepted: February 13, 2017 Published Online: March 31, 2017 Corresponding author: Tae Kyun Kim, M.D. Department of Orthopedic Surgery, School of Medicine, Wonkwang University, Shinyong-dong, Iksan, Chunbuk, Korea TEL: , FAX: osktg@wonkwang.ac.kr *This paper was supported by wonkwang university in Copyright 2017 Korean Society of Spine Surgery Journal of Korean Society of Spine Surgery. pissn eissn This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial License ( which permits unrestricted non-commercial use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.

I군과 II 군의치료효과비교는 Student T-test 를통해시행하였다. 결과 1군에대한추시관찰상 47명, 2군은 56명이었으며 VAS 와 Kim s criteria 모두에서신경근차단전에는두군간의차이를보이지않았다. 하지만신경근차단후 6개월째에는유의한차이를보였고 2군에서더좋은예후를보였다 ()(Table 3). 1 군에대한추시관찰상 VAS 는시술전평균 7.6점에서추시 1개월 2.6점, 추시 6개월 3.3점으로호전되었고, Kim s criteria 는시술전평균 1.6점에서추시 6개월 2.9로호전되었다. 이환된분절의분포는 L3/4 2명 (4%), L4/5가 28명 (60%), L5/S1 이 17명 (36%) 이었고, L4/5 에서더좋은예후를보였으나통계적으로유의성은없었다 (p=0.235). 아형별분류로중심성협착증이 22 명, 외측함요부협착증이 2명, 추간공협착증이 23명이었으며, 추간공협착증일경우양호한예후를보였다 (). 증상발현후 3개월이내로치료를시작한경우치료효과가좋았고이는통계적으로도유의하였다 ()(Table 4). 2군의경우 VAS 는시술전평균 7.8점에서추시 1개월 2.1점, 추시 6개월 2.7점으로호전되었고, Kim s criteria 는시술전평균 1.8점에서추시 6개월 3.2점으로호전되었다 (). 이환된신경근의분포는 Table 3.

Amundsen 등 22) 및 Atlas 등 23) 은척추관협착증환자들에서도증상의호전과악화가반복되고, 수술을시행할경우에도수술직후에만환자의만족도가높다는것을결과를발표하였고, 1992 년 Derby 등 24) 은신경근증상을동 35

Krempen 등 26) 은선택적척추신경근차단술의적응증으로첫째로방사통을가진환자로연관통과는감별해야하며, 둘째는정신적, 기능적인요인에의해발생된방사통의병력을가진환자, 셋째는방사선적검사로신경근압박의원인에대한정확한진단이안되는경우, 넷째는방사통을가진환자로임상적증상과병변부위가일치하지않는경우, 다섯째는 iodine 의알러지가있는환자를적응으로하였다. White 등 27) 은경막외스테로이드및국소마취제의주입으로 2주이내의단기적증상감소는 73% 에서 87% 까지효과적이었으나 2주이후로는효과가감소되었으며주사바늘의잘못된위치선정이평균 25% 에이른다고보고하였다. Ridley 등 28) 은추간판탈출증환자에서선택적신경근차단술을시행한경우 2주내에는통증조절에유효한결과를가져왔으나장기추시결과에서는대조군과크게차이가없었다고보고하였으며 Carette 등 29) 도유사한결과를보고하였다. 저자들의이전의연구에서도수술이예정된하지방사통환자를대상으로수술준비기간동안에신경근차단술을시행하여 5년이상의장기추시결과 24.6% 에서다른치료가필요치않은결과를보였다. 30) 이처럼선택적신경근차단술의유용성은대규모의연구를통해서입증되고있으나, 특정한질환에서시행후양호한효과를보이는지에대해서는비교적논의가이루어지지않았다. 이에본연구에서는단분절에국한된환자군에대한분석을통해선택적신경근차단술의특수성에대하여고찰한바, 추간판탈출증환자군에서보다양호한예후를보이는것으로사료된다. 두군간의성별, 나이에서는두군간의치료효과에영향을줄만한차이는찾아볼수없었다. 척추관협착증에서는기계적인압박이서서히진행하며정맥울혈 (venous congestion) 과허헐 (ischemia) 를초래하고신경근의압박이국소적인염증을일으키는것으로생각된다. 31,32) 저자들은추간판탈출증에서는정맥울혈에의한파행보다는염증이신경근이주원인이되어스테로이드를사용한신경근차단술에더좋은효과를보인것으로생각된다. 하지만이러한임상적결과를나타내는기전에대하 여조직학적연구를포함한다각적인추가적연구가필요할것으로보인다. 또한, 본연구는 6개월추시관찰로일반적인자연경과와비교하여보다장기적인관찰이필요할것으로사료되며이는이번연구의제한점으로사료된다. 결론 선택적신경근차단술후추시상추간판탈출증환자군에서임상적결과가좋았다. 또한 5요추신경근에이환되었을때치료효과가우수하였다. 척추관협착증환자중에서는추간공협착증환자에서치료후좋은예후를보였으며, 추간판탈출증중에서는후외측탈출증환자에서좋은예후를보였다. 두군모두증상발현후조기치료를시작한경우에서더좋은임상결과를보였다. 이에단분절에국한된척추관협착증또는추간판탈출증으로인해발생한하지방사통은선택적신경근차단술을통해효과적으로조절될수있으며, 조기에적극적인보존적치료를시행하여불필요한수술을줄일수있을것으로사료된다.
