NCT03002207

Brief Summary

In this prospective study the investigators seek to evaluate clinical outcomes after repairing the defect of intervertebral disc with autologous BMSC/gelatin sponge during microendoscopic discectomy for participants of lumbar disc herniation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Changes from baseline in Oswestry Disability Index(ODI)

    The self-completed questionnaire contains ten topics concerning intensity of pain, lifting, ability to care for oneself, ability to walk, ability to sit, sexual function, ability to stand, social life, sleep quality, and ability to travel.Each topic category is followed by 6 statements describing different potential scenarios in the patient's life relating to the topic. The patient then checks the statement which most closely resembles their situation. Each question is scored on a scale of 0-5 with the first statement being zero and indicating the least amount of disability and the last statement is scored 5 indicating most severe disability. The scores for all questions answered are summed, then multiplied by two to obtain the index (range 0 to 100). Zero is equated with no disability and 100 is the maximum disability possible.

    Baseline, post-op 3 months, 6 months,12 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Changes from baseline in Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)

    Baseline, post-op 3 months, 6 months,12 months

  • Changes from baseline in The Short Form (36) Health Survey(SF-36)

    Baseline, post-op 3 months, 6 months,12 months

  • Change from Baseline in Magnetic Resonance Classification of Lumbar Intervertebral Disc Degeneration(Pfirrmann classification)

Study Arms (4)

The defect is repaired and sutured

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants with lumbar disc herniation diseases are treated by Microendoscopic discectomy, and they are divided into four groups depend on whether the defect is repaired with Autologous Bone Marrow Stem Cell (BMSC)/gelatin sponge or not and whether the defect is sutured or not. In the first group,the defect of intervertebral disc is repaired with Autologous Bone Marrow Stem Cell (BMSC)/gelatin sponge and sutured.

Device: Autologous Bone Marrow Stem Cell (BMSC)/gelatin spongeProcedure: The defect is sutured

The defect is repaired but not sutured

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants with lumbar disc herniation diseases are treated by Microendoscopic discectomy, and they are divided into four groups depend on whether the defect is repaired with Autologous Bone Marrow Stem Cell (BMSC)/gelatin sponge or not and whether the defect is sutured or not. In the second group, the defect of intervertebral disc is repaired with autologous Bone Marrow Stem Cell (BMSC)/gelatin sponge but not sutured after discectomy.

Procedure: The defect is sutured

The defect is neither sutured nor repaired

NO INTERVENTION
