Résumé
Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is a common cause of low back pain (LBP). Recently, in the setting of LBP caused by LDH, a growing interest in ozone therapies has been observed. Recent published literatures. Being low back pain more common in the elderlies, exploring conservative alternatives to the surgical intervention is of especial interest. Efficacy and feasibility of ozone injections for LDH is debated. Several clinical studies showed controversial results, and the true benefit has not yet been clarified. Systematically summarize current evidences, analyze the quantitative available data and investigate the role of percutaneous ozone therapy for LDH. Current evidence encourage the use of ozone therapy for LBP from LDH. These conclusions should be interpret in light of the limitations of the present study.
