Lumbar Spine Provocative Intervertebral Discogram Discography neurosurgical movies. This movie illustrates the technique for performing a lumbar provocative discography. This movie shows patient positioning, skin preparation, local anesthetic injection, cannula insertion, contrast injection, simulated CT views of a normal disc, and wound dressing.
In a disc herniation, if the disc has an internal tear, nerves and blood vessels can grow into the tear as the body tries to heal the tear. Disc movement or pressure changes can then stimulate these nerves, causing pain.
Provocative discography, also neurosurgical movies, is a procedure in which contrast fluid is injected into the nucleus pulposus of an intervertebral disc to distend the disc. The injected fluid simulates the normal increase in pressure inside the disc that occurs during daily activities.
