Abstract： Objective To explore the clinical effect of ozone ablation and nerve root block in the treatment of lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion. Methods Two hundred patients with lumbar disc herniation were divided into two groups:100 patients in group A were treated with ozone ablation; 100 patients in group B were treated with ozone ablation combined with nerve root block. The therapeutic effect was evaluated by comparing the value of VAS and total effective rate of therapy at the first day before treatment, and at the 3rd day ,3rd month and 6th month after treatment. Results The values of VAS in two groups at the 3rd day,3rd month and 6th month after treatment were remarkably lower than those at the first day before treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The values of VAS in B group at the 3rd day ,3rd month and 6th month after treatment were lower significantly than those in group A (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The total effective rate of therapy at the 3rd day,3rd month and 6th month after treatment was 90% ,85% and 79% in group A,and 100% ,90% and 85% in group B respectively. The total effective rate of therapy at the 3rd day ,3rd month and 6th month after treatment in group B was higher than in group A. Conclusion The total effective rate of therapy by ozone ablation combined with nerve root block treating lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion under CT at the 3rd day after treatment was 100% , and that at the 3rd month and 6th month after treatment was increased.
