| Research Abstract |
Low back pain and associated spinal disorders including lumbardisc herniation (LDH) and lumbar spinal-canal stenosis (LSS) are formidable problems for society. In this study, we
1) established animal model of disc degeneration and investigated the significant factors for progressive disc degeneration, and developed a new strategy against degenerated disc;
2) developed and modified the novel implant which enable us for minimally invasive surgery against LSS patients;
3) developed LDH animal model and obtained useful data by analyzing this model, that can be potentially used for the new treatment for LDH patients.
