Tóm tắt

There is a growing number of publications highlighting sarcopenia and myosteatosis as poor prognosic factors for treatment results in oncological patients. The decrease in the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the multifidus muscle and muscle steatosis is associated with lumbar disc herniation and low back/limb pain. Nevertheless, no studies have analyzed the influence of the above parameters on patient satisfaction, pain decrease and return to daily activities. The aim of the study was to verify whether decreased preoperative CSA of the paraspinal and psoas major muscles and their fatty degeneration (myosteatosis) may influence the outcome of surgical treatment of lumbar disc disease (LDD). One hundred and one patients with LDD undergoing open microdiscectomy were enrolled in the analysis. Relative cross-sectional areas (rCSA) of the paraspinal and psoas major muscles as well as their fatty degeneration were measured. Patients were assessed according to the validated Polish versions of the EURO EQ-5D, Core Outcome Measure Index (COMI), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) 1 and 6 months postoperatively. The association between the variables was calculated using Pearson r and Spearman rank correlation. The Kruskal–Wallis test was used to compare the results between the groups with different rCSA of paraspinal and psoas major muscles and a different degree of paraspinal muscle myosteatosis. Fatty degeneration of the paraspinal muscles correlated with better outcomes 1 and 6 months postoperatively according to ODI (P = 0.003 and P = 0.027, respectively). Patients with higher rCSA of the paraspinal and psoas major muscles achieved better results on the EURO EQ-5D scale (P = 0.0289 and P = 0.0089, respectively). Higher rCSA of the paraspinal and psoas major muscles did not correlate with better outcomes measured using ODI, COMI and VAS scales (P ≥ 0.072). The degree of fatty degeneration of the paraspinal muscles correlates with better outcomes 1 and 6 months after microdiscectomy.
