Chronic Pain:1

Why Patients Get Misdiagnosed

When reviewing a chart, a great deal of confusion can arise, confronted with a claimant, who seems to have a valid claim, but does not have supporting medical evidence. There are several diagnoses such as “chronic pain syndrome,” or "low back pain," which are not diagnoses but rather are descriptions. Likewise, “lumbo-sacral strain,” or "cervical strain” should be reserved for an acute problem, but are not applicable for a chronic problem, since sprain last only four to six weeks by definition. When a physician is using these poor descriptions or faulty diagnoses rather than specific diagnoses, there is a 40% to 67% chance that the claimant will really have a definable organic lesion, that is real, and probably could respond to appropriate treatment (Hendler et al., Psychosomatics, ’93, and ’96). The implications for the insurance industry, especially in the area of return to work, is obvious. (More Information)

PLDD, Percutaneous Laser Disc Decompression
PLDD is the minimally-invasive medical procedure developed by Dr. Daniel S.J. Choy in 1986 that uses a laser beam to treat back and neck pain caused by a herniated disc.

A herniated disc is like a balloon with a weak spot. Inflating it will cause a bulge (herniation). Pain results from the bulge pressing against nerves in the spinal column.

The half-hour PLDD treatment is performed on an outpatient basis using only local anesthesia. During the procedure, a thin needle is inserted into the herniated disc under x-ray guidance. An optical fiber is inserted through the needle and laser energy is sent through the fiber, vaporizing a tiny portion of the disc nucleus. This creates a partial vacuum which draws the herniation away from the nerve root, thereby relieving the pain. The effect usually is immediate.

Patients get off the table with just a small adhesive bandage and return home for 24 hours of bed rest. Then patients begin progressive ambulation, walking up to a mile. Most return to work in four to five days.

Because only a thin needle is used, there is no cutting and no scarring. Since only a tiny amount of disc is vaporized, there is no subsequent spinal instability. PLDD is different from open lumbar disc surgery because there is no damage to the back muscle, no bone removal or large skin incision. Most of the complications that may occur with open surgery are eliminated with the PLDD procedure.

Brain Tumors: 4
The two major categories of brain tumor are: primary (those that develop in the brain) and metastatic (those originating elsewhere in the body but spreading to the brain secondarily). Both classifications include many different types of tumors, each with a unique prognosis and individualized treatment. 

DIAGNOSIS:
Brain tumors can occur at any age and cause greatly diverse symptoms relatively independent of the exact tumor type. When the tumor increases pressure on the brain within the skull, victims may suffer headache, blurred vision, vomiting, and mental dulling. Localized signs of brain dysfunction may occur when a tumor destroys or compromises areas of the brain that regulate specific functions, such as language ability or motor control. 

TREATMENT:
Treatment of a tumor depends on the type, location, size, and whether it is benign or malignant. Skilled neurosurgeons can often completely remove benign tumors. For malignant brain tumors, surgery to remove as much of the tumor as possible to relieve pressure may precede radiation treatment. Researchers are still investigating the usefulness of chemotherapy in the treatment of malignant primary brain tumors. (More Information)
