About this trial
This experimental use umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in treatment of the early stage of lumbar discogenic pain (endogenous pain of the disc) to evaluate its safety and efficacy.
This experimental is mainly aimed at over 18years old people, regardless of gender, with refractory and persistent back pain for more than 6 months.
The efficacy and safety of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCS) were evaluated by low-temperature plasma ablation and intravertebral disc injection, which were divided into treatment group and control group.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
age over 18
refractory and persistent lumbago pain for more than 6 months, with/without radiation pain in lower limbs, and poor conservative treatment effect;
the straight leg elevation test was 70 degrees negative;
MRI of lumbar spine showed herniated disc < 6 mm, no obvious compression of spinal cord and nerve roots; T2-weighted mri of the lumbar spine showed decreased single/multi-segment signal (black disc sign) or High signal zone (HIZ) in the posterior part of the intervertebral disc annulus.
Disqualifiers
coagulation dysfunction or anticoagulant therapy;
intervertebral space infection, puncture site infection or systemic infection;
lumbago pain of non-spinal origin, such as sacroiliac joint origin pain;
patients who have had open surgery or other disc treatments;
