Differential diagnostics in patients with mild lumbar spinal stenosis ? the contributions and limits of various tests

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) and diabetic polyneuropathy are common ailments of older age. Many people suffer from both at the same time. In such patients it may sometimes be difficult to separate signs and symptoms that could be attributed to either disease. This study evaluates the contributions and limits of various tests, especially the exercise treadmill test (ETT) and electrophysiological examination, in the diagnostics of patients with mild LSS. Twenty-nine patients with mild LSS documented by computed tomography (CT) participated in this study. Sixteen of the patients had neurogenic claudication (LSS NC+), and 13 patients did not (LSS NC-). Patients with LSS were compared with a group of 24 patients with diabetic polyneuropathy and 25 healthy volunteers. The distance covered, the time spent walking and the reasons for preliminary termination of the ETT were evaluated in all groups. Initial electrophysiological examination included electromyography (EMG) from the upper and lower
