제3요추횡돌기증후군의 생체역학적, 해부생리학적, 신경화학적관점의 고찰과 의의 = Biomechanical, Anatomical, and Neurochemical Perspectives on L3 Transverse Process Syndrome and Its Significance: A Review

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Background: The third lumbar transverse process syndrome refers to local tenderness and other symptoms accompanied by pain in the lower back, hips, and legs due to chronic damage to muscles, fascia, and other soft tissues attached to third lumbar transverse pro- cess. The third lumbar transverse process syndrome was proposed in acupotomology, and the third lumbar transverse process syndrome accounts for a large part of low back pain. We investigated the importance of third lumbar transverse process syndrome from view of biomechanical, anatomical physiology, and neurochemical.
Methods: We searched and organized of literature on third lumbar process syndrome through pubmed, google scholar & CNKI.
Results: The effects of acuptomy treatment were examined from three perspectives. From a biomechanics point of view, Acupotomy treatment relieves abnormal tension in soft tis- sues and stimulates recovery. From anatomical physiology point of view, acupotomy treat- ment into fascia can improve blood flow and normalize wrinkles and elasticity to restore the normal function of the fascia. From a neurochemistry point of view, acupotomy treat- ment reduces the high concentration of NO produced by iNOS and promotes the repair of soft tissue, also reduces chronic pain by lowering TNF- α and IL-1β serum levels.
Conclusion: The finding of this paper will help to provide understanding of biomechanical, anatomical, and neurochemical perspectives of the third lumbar transverse process Syn- drome and It’s significance.
