ABSTRACT
Introduction: Atherosclerosis is the leading cause of general
mortality and hospital morbidity. The prevalence of lumbar
intervertebral disc degeneration related to atherothrombotic
pathology has been increasing, and the incidence of low back pain
reaches its peak after 45 years. A relationship between the decrease
in apolipoprotein A1 and hypertriglyceridemia as related factors, as
well as hypertension, elevated LDL levels and a high Framingham
score, but it has yet to be seen if the treatment is compromised in that
aspect.
Methods: Retrospective observational study in patients with
herniated disc treated with combined conservative therapy,
comparing their effectiveness depending on the cardiovascular risk
presented.
Results: A total of 171 patients were analyzed. 25.7% presented
adequate weight, 41.5% overweight and 32.8%, obesity. In all, 42.7%
had hypertension, 19.3% diabetes mellitus, 15.3% smoked, no patients
had physical activity and 24% had a high or very high cardiovascular
risk. There was no difference between the results presented with the
combined conservative treatment.
Conclusion: In addition to the physical components that cause disc
herniation, there is a compromised circulatory component, which
was not affected after the combined conservative treatment, which
is why it is recommended the timely treatment of the herniated disk
and its risk factors.
