Background
The lumbar vertebra consists of a bony vertebral body and a relatively flexible intervertebral disc, behind which are the spinal cord and spinal nerves responsible for the sensory movements below the waist, as well as for the urination and defecation, etc. The lumbar intervertebral disc is kept fixed inside the edge of the vertebral body by the fibrous ring under normal conditions, and is contained by cerebrospinal fluid around the spinal cord, so that the intervertebral disc has no contact with the spinal cord and nerve roots. Because of the bad sitting posture and age, the human lumbar intervertebral disc can be degenerated and dehydrated, the stress on the surrounding annulus fibrosus and the rear articular process joint is correspondingly increased, the outer annulus fibrosus of the lumbar intervertebral disc is broken under the continuous extrusion of external force, the nucleus pulposus protrudes from the broken part, and nerve roots are pressed or stimulated, so that pain in the waist and buttocks (involving pain) and pain in the legs (radiating pain) are caused.
In the related art, nucleus pulposus forming operation is often adopted to treat lumbar disc herniation, the principle is that the energy generated by a plasma generator at the end part of a low-temperature plasma operation electrode is utilized to enable a highly-aggregated plasma thin layer to be formed between the plasma operation electrode and tissues, plasma in the thin layer is accelerated by an electric field, and the energy is sufficient to crush organic molecular chains in the tissues, so that the tissues are decomposed into simple molecules, atoms or low-molecular-weight gases, and vaporization, cutting, ablation and hemostasis effects are generated.
With the related technology, under the guidance of a C-shaped arm or CT, a doctor inserts a puncture needle into an intervertebral disc from a safe triangle, then acts on the intervertebral disc through a plasma operation electrode, ablates tissues around the electrode, and can totally gasify and discharge the tissues which are pressed on nerves out of the body through repeated ablation. The electrode temperature is maintained at 70 ℃ and the temperature 1mm away from the electrode is reduced to 40 ℃ in the whole ablation process, so that the possibility of damaging peripheral nerves is very small. And simultaneously, the cold coagulation effect of the plasma operation electrode can be utilized to shrink and solidify tissues around the ablation channel, so as to prevent nucleus pulposus tissues from protruding again along the ablation channel.
In summary, the nucleoplasty is actually performed for the intervertebral disc, however, when performing the nucleoplasty, what degree of ablation should be performed is generally determined by a doctor through experience after observing a CT slice of a human spine, which may cause incomplete ablation and ablation transition, and the ablation situation after the nucleoplasty cannot be known in time, which is not beneficial to performing targeted treatment on a patient, and there is a need for improvement.
