| Research Abstract |
To study the mechanical properties of enzyme-injected intervertebral discs, quasi-static compression tests and dynamic vibration tests were performed on canine intervertebral discs 2weeks after enzyme injection (short-period group) and within 6 months (long-period group) respectively, and the findings in each group were compared with those of normal discs as a control.
The results of the quasi-static tests were as follows:in the short-period group, normalized stiffness of the discs was reduced significantly and the normalized creep rate was increased. The intradiscal pressures produced by external loading in short-period discs were almost half those of the control.in the long-period group such values tended to recover partially.
The results of the dynamic tests were as follows:in the sort- period group,both elasticity and viscosity were reduced,while in the long-period group elasticity recovered but viscosity did not. These findings suggest that the shock-absorbing ability of enzyme-injected discs does not recover.
Then, hydroxyapatite were inserted into the discs after collagenase injection to examine the possibility of ossification of the discs. But ossification could not be proved.
