      • Therapeutic Effect of Mirogabalin on Peripheral Neuropathic Pain due to Lumbar Spine Disease

        Kim Kyongsong,Kyongsong Kim,Toyohiko Isu,Rinko Kokubo,Naotaka Iwamoto,Daijiro Morimoto,Masaaki Kawauchi,Akio Morita 대한척추외과학회 2021 Asian Spine Journal Vol.15 No.3

        Study Design: Retrospective study. Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of mirogabalin in treatment of peripheral neuropathic pain due to lumbar spine disease. Overview of Literature: Mirogabalin is a novel selective ligand for the α2δ subunit of voltage-gated Ca channels. Methods: Between April and December 2019, we used mirogabalin to treat 60 consecutive patients (mean age, 67.6 years) with leg symptoms due to lumbar disease. The treatment outcome after 8 weeks of mirogabalin therapy was evaluated by comparing the pre- and post-administration Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) for leg symptoms and sleep disturbance, the NRS and Roland–Morris Disability Questionnaire for low back pain (LBP), and the quality of life (QOL) score (based on EuroQol five-dimension five-level scale). Results: Mirogabalin treatment was stopped at less than eight weeks in eight patients. The remaining 52 patients for evaluation were divided as group 1 (17 patients who presented with leg symptoms that lasted for less than 3 months) and group 2 (35 patients with leg symptoms that lasted longer than 3 months). The leg symptoms and LBP in both groups significantly improved at 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, and sleep disturbance and QOL were improved at 8 weeks as well. Compared to group 2, the pretreatment leg symptoms and QOL were significantly worse in group 1, and their improvement after 8 weeks of mirogabalin treatment was significantly better (p<0.05). Of the 60 original patients, 17 suffered adverse effects, which were mild in 16 patients and required treatment cessation due to excessive weight gain in one patient. Conclusions: We have validated the effect of mirogabalin on neuropathic pain due to lumbar spine disease, which has effectively addressed the associated leg symptoms, LBP, and sleep disturbance.

      • Impact of Patient Counseling and Socioeconomic Factors on Initiation of Rehabilitation Program in Spinal Cord Injury Patients Presenting to a Tertiary Spine Unit in India

        Kim Kyongsong,Siddharth Narasimhan Aiyer,Vignesh Gunasekaran,Latha Mani,Sri Vijay Anand K. S.,Shanmuganathan Rajasekaran,Ajoy Prasad Shetty 대한척추외과학회 2021 Asian Spine Journal Vol.15 No.3

        Study Design: Prospective case series. Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the impact of education, financial income, occupation, and patient counseling on the timing of enrolment in a spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation program. Overview of Literature: A rehabilitation program following SCI is essential to improve functional outcomes. Socioeconomic factors can affect the timing of enrolment to a rehabilitation program. Literature on the effects of socioeconomic factors among patients with SCI in the Indian scenario is limited. Methods: A prospective, consecutive analysis of patients with SCI was performed with 1-year follow-up. Assessment of the timing of enrolment to a rehabilitation program was performed using the modified Kuppuswamy socioeconomic scores (MKSS). Patients admitted to the SCI unit (group A), underwent intensive individual, group, and family counseling sessions to encourage early enrolment into a rehabilitation program. Patients presenting directly for rehabilitation (group B) were analyzed for comparison. Results: A total of 153 patients were recruited. Group A was composed of 122 patients who started the rehabilitation program after a mean of 28 days, compared with a mean of 149 days for 31 patients in group B. In group A, 104 patients (85%; mean MKSS, 14.02) and 18 patients (15%; mean MKSS, 15.61) enrolled for rehabilitation <6 weeks and ≥6 weeks, respectively. In group B, 12 patients (39%; mean MKSS, 13.69) and 19 patients (61%; mean MKSS, 12.10) enrolled for rehabilitation <6 weeks and ≥6 weeks, respectively. The total MKSS and scores for education, income, and occupation did not show a significant difference between the two both groups (p>0.05). Conclusions: Early patient counseling in the acute care unit helps in the early enrolment of patients with poor socioeconomic demographic profile to a rehabilitation program.

        Superior and Middle Cluneal Nerve Entrapment as a Cause of Low Back Pain

        Toyohiko Isu,Kyongsong Kim,Daijiro Morimoto,Naotaka Iwamoto 대한척추신경외과학회 2018 Neurospine Vol.15 No.1

        Low back pain (LBP) is encountered frequently in clinical practice. The superior and the middle cluneal nerves (SCN and MCN) are cutaneous nerves that are purely sensory. They dominate sensation in the lumbar area and the buttocks, and their entrapment around the iliac crest can elicit LBP. The reported incidence of SCN entrapment (SCN-E) in patients with LBP is 1.6%–14%. SCN-E and MCN entrapment (MCN-E) produce leg symptoms in 47%–84% and 82% of LBP patients, respectively. In such patients, pain is exacerbated by lumbar movements, and the symptoms mimic radiculopathy due to lumbar disorder. As patients with failed back surgery or Parkinson disease also report LBP, the differential diagnosis must include those possibilities. The identification of the trigger point at the entrapment site and the disappearance of symptoms after nerve block are diagnostically important. LBP due to SCN-E or MCN-E can be treated less invasively by nerve block and neurolysis. Spinal surgeons treating patients with LBP should consider SCN-E or MCN-E.

        Characteristics of Low Back Pain due to Superior Cluneal Nerve Entrapment Neuropathy

        Koichi Miki,Kyongsong Kim,Toyohiko Isu,Juntaro Matsumoto,Rinko Kokubo,Masanori Isobe,Tooru Inoue 대한척추외과학회 2019 Asian Spine Journal Vol.13 No.5

        Study Design: Retrospective analysis. Purpose: The present study aimed to investigate the features of low back pain (LBP) due to superior cluneal nerve (SCN) entrapment neuropathy (SCN-EN) using the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ), and to analyze the differences between LBP due to SCN-EN and lumbar spinal canal stenosis (LSS). Overview of Literature: The SCN is derived from the cutaneous branches of the dorsal rami of T11–L5 and passes through the thoracolumbar fascia. LBP due to SCN-EN is exacerbated by various types of lumbar movement, and its features remain to be fully elucidated, often resulting in the misdiagnosis of lumbar spine disorder. Methods: The present study included 35 consecutive patients with SCN-EN treated via nerve blocks or surgical release between April 2016 and August 2017 (SCN-EN group; 16 men, 19 women; mean age, 65.5±17.0 years; age range, 19–89 years). During the same period, 33 patients were surgically treated with LSS (LSS group; 19 men, 14 women; mean age, 65.3±12.0 years; age range, 35–84 years). The characteristics of LBP were then compared between patients with SCN-EN and those with LSS using the RMDQ. Results: The duration of disease was significantly longer in the SCN-EN group than in the LSS group (26.0 vs. 16.0 months, p=0.012). Median RMDQ scores were significantly higher in the SCN-EN group (13 points; interquartile range, 8–15 points) than in the LSS group (7 points; interquartile range, 4–9 points; p<0.001). For seven items (question number 1, 8, 11, and 20–23), the ratio of positive responses was higher in the SCN-EN group than in the LSS group. Conclusions: Patients with SCN-EN exhibit significantly higher RMDQ scores and greater levels of disability due to LBP than patients with LSS. The findings further demonstrate that SCN-EN may affect physical and psychological function.
