摘要
Intraosseous basivertebral nerve ablation has shown sustained efficacy in treating chronic axial low back pain (LBP) in patients with type 1 or 2 Modic changes. This systematic review aims to determine the efficacy of intraosseous basivertebral nerve radiofrequency ablation in treating nonradiating axial chronic LBP compared to standard therapy, sham, or without contrast. The population of interest is individuals greater than or equal to 18 years old with chronic nonradiating vertebrogenic pain. The key outcome was the percentage of patients with greater than or equal to 50% pain reduction, greater than or equal to 10-point improvement in function and disability measured by the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), greater than or equal to two-point pain reduction in the visual analog scale (VAS) or numerical pain rating scale, and a decrease in opioid utilization by 10 morphine milligram equivalents. Three databases, PubMed, MEDLINE, and Google Scholar, were used to retrieve the studies for the review. Two independent reviewers assessed the studies for inclusion using the validated tools for quality appraisal. There were 286 articles in total; however, only 11 publications with extensive data on 413 participants matched the inclusion criteria and were used for this review. At three months, a majority of the participants reported greater than or equal to 10-point improvement in the ODI, a measure of functional and disability improvement on a 10-point scale, and greater than or equal to two-point improvement in the VAS. A good number of patients in the basivertebral nerve ablation (BVNA) arm reported complete pain resolution demonstrating therapy success and the superiority of BVNA over sham and standard treatment. Basivertebral nerve radiofrequency ablation, among other criteria, is a safe and minimally invasive therapy that significantly lowers pain and impairment in individuals with vertebrogenic pain with distinct Modic type 1 and 2 changes at lumbar vertebra three-sacral vertebra one (L3-S1) vertebral levels. Proper patient selection and exact procedural methods are essential to the success of basivertebral nerve neurotomy. The findings of the existing investigations require confirmation by nonindustry-funded, large-scale, high-quality trials using generalizable study participants.
