Distinct Degree of Radiculopathy at Different Levels of Peripheral Nerve Injury
2012
Background
Lumbar radiculopathy is a common clinical problem, characterized by dorsal root ganglion (DRG) injury and neural hyperactivity causing intense pain. However, the mechanisms involved in DRG injury have not been fully elucidated. Furthermore, little is known about the degree of radiculopathy at the various levels of nerve injury. The purpose of this study is to compare the degree of radiculopathy injury at the DRG and radiculopathy injury proximal or distal to the DRG.
