Abstract




Objective: Chronic low back
pain can originate from a number of constructs. It has a range of pathologies
depending on multifactorial causes. In this study, we aimed to investigate in
asymptomatic patients who compensation complaint of chronic low back pain in
our outpatient clinic and demonstrate its for functionality in treatment
planning.


Material
and Methods:
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) results of 78
asymptomatic patients (46 males, 32 females) who complained of low back pain
for at least 12 weeks atMarch 2016 - January 2017 were examined. During MRI
assessments, T1 and T2 weighted sagittal plane and transaxial images of the
lumbar region (L1-S1) and radiology reports of these images were obtained for
all patients.  Degenerative disc
disease, Bulging protrusion, Spinal canal stenosis and Nerve root compression
re-evaluated and patient findings were assessed.


Results: There was no
abnormality in the MRI results of 16 patients (20%) examined within the study
criteria.  Nerve root compression was
detected in 17 patients (22%), spinal stenosis in 24 patients (30%) and disc
degeneration or bulging in 57 patients (78%). There was no statistically
significant difference in the incidence of pathologies by asymptomatic
patient findings.


Conclusion: Chronic back pain
is a disease that involves a wide range of pathologies. MRI scan provides
detailed images to the clinician, it is difficult to make a specific
diagnosis in the majority of patients with low back pain. Difficulty should
be taken into account that the findings obtained by the clinician during
assessment can also be seen in asymptomatic individuals
