Infiltração gordurosa nos mm. multífidus e psoas maior em função do tipo de alteração discal em pacientes com lombalgia: um estudo através de imagens de ressonância magnética / Fat infiltration in multifidi and psoas major muscles according to disc pathology in low back pain patients: a magnetic resonance imaging studyBojadsen, Thais Weber de Alencar 30 March 2004 (has links)
Hipotrofía nos músculos que estabilizam a coluna tem sido identificada nos pacientes com lombalgia. Entretanto, não se sabe se a perda muscular é causa ou conseqüência desta disfunção, nem se ela é influenciada pelo tipo de alteração discal que o indivíduo apresenta. Este estudo testou a hipótese de que a hipotrofía dos pacientes com lombalgia seja dependente do tipo de alteração discal. Para avaliar a condição muscular em diferentes tipos de alteração discal, optou-se por um estudo retrospectivo e por uma seleção aleatória de 78 exames de ressonância magnética de indivíduos com lombalgia. Em cada exame foram realizadas medidas quantitativas da porcentagem de gordura na área de secção transversa dos mm. multífidus e psoas, nos três últimos níveis da coluna lombar. A alteração discal foi encontrada em 95% dos exames, sendo o abaulamento o achado de imagem mais freqüente, seguido pela protrusão discal. A porcentagem de gordura variou conforme o tipo de alteração discal. Nos níveis com abaulamento há em ambos os músculos estudados 6% a mais de tecido gorduroso do que nos níveis onde há protrusão e esta diferença foi estatisticamente significante. Músculos nos níveis onde há protrusão sem fissura no anel fibroso apresentaram maior substituição gordurosa do que aqueles onde há protrusão com fissura. A porcentagem de gordura foi influenciada por características anatômicas como músculo estudado e nível da coluna, e por características como idade e sexo dos sujeitos. Estes resultados indicam que a hipotrofía muscular em pacientes com lombalgia não é um processo uniforme e generalizado, mas sim correlacionado a diferentes variáveis, entre elas o tipo de alteração discal que o paciente apresenta. / Low back pain patients present atrophy on muscles responsible for spine stabilization. However, it is not clear if muscle waste is related to the cause or if it is a consequence of this disfunction. Nor it is clear if muscle athophy is affected by the type of disc pathology. This study tested the hypothesis that muscle waste in low back pain patients influenced by the type of disc derangement. Magnetic resonance scans of 78 low back pain patients were randomly analysed. Cross sectional area percentage of fat tissue in multifidi and psoas major muscles was measured on the lower levels of the lumbar spine. Disc pathology was found in 95% of the exams and disc bulge was the most frequent abnormality, followed by disc protrusion. Fat percentage varied according to disc pathology and this difference was statistically significant. Muscles on levels with disc bulge presented 6% more fat deposits than muscles on levels with disc protrusion. Muscles on levels with discs without anular tear present more fat infiltration than muscles on levels with anular tear. Fat percentage was also influenced by anatomic aspects such as evaluated muscle and spine level, and sample characteristics as age and sex. The results indicated that muscle atrophy in low back pain patients is not a uniform and generalized feature. It is correlated to different variables, such as type of disc pathology
