Abstract

Objective – This study was done to assess the spectrum of pathology of lumbar degenerative disc disease via MRI, to correlate MRI findings with the symptomatology and assessment of relevance of MRI findings in young adult patients with low back pain. Methods: A retrospective hospital based study was done of 232 patients who underwent lumbar spine MRI for low back pain symptom complex with exclusion of acute spinal infection, recent trauma, tumors, spinal dysraphism and metabolic conditions from the study. The MRI findings were interpreted independently and subsequently correlated with clinical history and examination findings from patients’ records. Results- 26 (11.2%) of the 232 patients in the study group had completely normal MRI findings. 2 patients had zygapophyseal joint arthropathy only with no evident diskal abnormality on MRI. Multiple contiguous level disc disease was noted in 138 (59.5%) patients, multiple level disc disease with skipped segments was noted in 14(6%) patients, and 52 (22.4%) patients had single level disc involvement. Disc degeneration on MRI was most frequent at L4-L5 level (79.3% ) followed by L5-S1 level (68.9%), L3-L4 level (32.8%), L2-L3 level (16.3%) and L1-L2 level (9.5%). Disc herniations were most frequent at L4-L5, L5-S1 and L3-L4 levels in decreasing order of frequency.
