Ozone Nucleolysis

Here ozone Nucleolysis is injected into the hydrated & contained herniated disc into nucleus pulposus. It produces anti-oxidants(oxygen free radicals) which helps in shrinking the disc and decreasing pressure on nerves.

Why Its is Used?

Oxygen-ozone nucleolysis is a simple, cost-effective, and safe minimally invasive technique.

For the treatment of pain and disability due to contained and uncontained disc herniations, with a short recovery period. Know More

Ozone Nucleus: Process:-

Percutaneous injection of an ozone-oxygen mixture. Cone. Ozone is 29–30 μg / mL. Ozone gas is injected immediately from the ozone generator. .3–10 ml of ozone in the center of the disc is injected by intraformal injection /. Processed under CT or C-arm guidance.

Ozone nucleolis: Is it safe?:-

Yes, it is more secure than other processes. Not a single one of the more than 200,000 cases of ozonucleosis has been reported in various centers in European countries.

Multi-center, retrospective 3-year follow-up in lumbar disc herniation treated with the European Neurosurgical Institute protocol of European ozone therapy.

Manu patients showed good and excellent results with only one case of disc infection, with 78.9% recovering from antibiotics.

COMPLICATIONS:-

This is relatively very safe procedure done under local anesthesia. Very rarely chances of damage to nerve roots or discitis (infection of disc) are there.
