Filter by:Conventional open surgery has been shown to be an effective procedure for LCS decompression. Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) through tubular retractors is a recently introduced alternative procedure for decompression of LCS. The current study aims at evaluating the efficacy of minimally invasive surgery as a decompressive procedure in comparison to conventional open surgery for the treatment of patients with LCS.
To investigate whether destroying the adjacent posterior ligamentous complex (PLC) has an effect on adjacent segment degeneration (ASD) after L5/S1 posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF)
The investigators will retrospectively study lumbar spinal stenosis patients who underwent OLIF or MIS-TLIF with percutaneous pedicle screw fixation between January 2016 and December 2019.The investigators will measure estimated blood loss, operative time, hospital stay, cost, reoperation, and complication incidence, visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA), and Short Form-36 (SF-36) scores, discal and foraminal height, lumbar lordotic angle, and fusion status.The investigators will conduct to evaluate postoperative improvements, complications, and reoperation rates between patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) undergoing oblique lateral interbody fusion (OLIF) or minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF).
Infection after spinal surgery is one of the serious complications. Spinal surgery infection can cause high morbidity, mortality, and costs. In spite of different prophylactic methods, up to 15% of infection appears after spinal surgery. Vancomycin powder, which is one of the most applied methods, seems to be effective and inexpensive. However, vancomycin administration may be inconvenient in elderly participants with high comorbidity and especially kidney problems. The investigators aimed to reduce the rate of infection in the post-op 90-day period by adding per-op Teicoplanin powder onto the implant in participants scheduled for lumbar posterior instrumentation.
describe the functional evolution of patients at more than 10 years post intervention. describe the evolution of pain, satisfaction, quality of life of patients to more than 5 years pot intervention.
To develop and validate a questionnaire aiming at assessing specific activity limitation in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS).
Percutaneous epidural neuroplasty (PEN) is an effective interventional treatment for radicular pain. But in some cases with wire catheter like Racz catheter, contrast runoffs were not shown to the foramen. This study will show that contrast runoff will affect the results of PEN and in cases which contrast runoff are not shown, additional transforaminal epidural blocks will affect the results of PEN by reviewing medical record, retrospectively.
The purpose of this study was to compare standard open laminectomy with ULBD approach in regard to efficiency, safety, and clinical outcome.
Decompression surgery has proved to be effective for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis (LSS) with persistent pain. But the efficiency of the surgery for degenerated LSS remain uncertain and is the subject of this study. This is a multiple center open-label randomised trial. Patients were randomly allocated to surgical group or a nonoperative group. Because of the procedure , neither patients nor investigators were blinded. The primary outcome is the change of symptom measure by the Oswestry disability index 6, 12, and 24 months after procedure.
