It is a widely-known fact that Mithra, famed in Avestan Hymn (Yasht) is considered identical with Mithras, the God of War who waged a fierce religious contention against Christianity in the Mediterranean World at the end of the Ancient Period.Studies in this field, however, have largely been focused, as seen i n the study by Prof. Cumont, on the development of Mithraicism in the Roman World, and so far due attention has not been paid to the process of the formation of Mithraicism in the Orient. This is due, first, to the fact that the interest of Western historians has mainly been centered to elucidating Christian European Civilization, and therefore the study of Mithra, despite its connection with Christian European Civilization, has had to be confined both in time and area to the limited world of Rome at the end of the Ancient Period, and secondly it is due to linguistic and other osbtacles that one cannot avoid in the study of Orient Mithras.The study of the entire history of Mithraicism will become possible only when the unity of Orient and Latin worlds is successfully attained, but unfortunately the two worlds have remained separate without any interchange of inter-world study between Orient and Latin worlds.The proposed study into Mithra in Avestan Hymn is intended to give light upon the original nature of Mithraicism and also to inquire into the causes of the development of the religion during the period of more than 2, 000 years.Renan once said something to the effect that if any fatal hindrance had prevented Christianity from development, the world would have been under the rule of Mithra. This statement clearly suggests the important religious role played by Mithraicism in the Imperial Roman Period.As it is well-known, a great variety of religions of both Oriental and Occidental worlds flourished in the Ancient Mediterranean World. I deem it worth its while to look into the problems of Mithracism in its original nature, to which religion one often refers “an amalgam of religions in Iran, Babylonia-Greece and those of the Romans and the Hebrews”.

エピドラスコピーは腰部脊柱管狭窄症などによる痛みに対して,硬膜外腔の癒着剥離および神経根周囲の洗浄を目的として行われる治療手技である.このようなエピドラスコピーの利用法とは異なり,腰部脊柱管硬膜外腔内嚢胞性病変による腰下肢痛に対して,エピドラスコピーを造影のために使用し,Tuohy針による穿刺によって嚢胞性病変の縮小と痛みの緩和に成功した1症例を経験したので報告する.症例は52歳の女性である.半年前から左臀部痛および左下肢痛を発症し,腰椎MRI所見から第4腰椎硬膜外腔内の嚢胞性病変による第5腰髄神経根の圧迫が痛みの原因と診断した.嚢胞性病変の成因としては第4/5腰椎椎間関節滑液嚢胞が示唆された.まず行われた低侵襲治療である椎間関節ブロック,腰部硬膜外ブロック,薬物療法では痛みは軽減しなかった.そこで,エピドラスコピーを用いて直視的に嚢胞を穿破しようと試みた.しかし,エピドラスコピー本体での穿破は硬度が足りず成功しなかったため,硬膜外腔の局所的な造影で不染部から嚢胞の位置を同定し,第4/5腰椎椎間板間隙からTuohy針を穿刺し嚢胞内容の減量に成功した.穿刺直後から痛みは軽減し,その後の腰椎MRIでは嚢胞性病変が縮小した.
