Percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion for degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis

Objective To investigate the efficacy of percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion(TLIF) in the treatment of degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis(DLSS). Methods From October 2018 to October 2019,40 patients with DLSS in Nanyang Central Hospital were randomly divided into group A(20 cases,treated with percutaneous endoscopic TLIF) and group B(20 cases,treated with traditional open TLIF). The incision length,operation time,intraoperative blood loss,bed rest time,hospital stay and complications of the 2 groups were recorded. The intervertebral space height,the cross-sectional area of dural sac and the intervertebral foramen area at pre-operation and postoperative 1,6 and 12 months were recorded to evaluate the decompression effect. Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA) score and Oswestry disability index(ODI) at pre-operation and postoperative 1,6 and 12 months were used to evaluate lumbar function. Results All the operations were successfully completed. All the patients were followed up >12 months. The incision length,operation time,intraoperative blood loss,bed rest time,hospital stay and complication rate of group A were better than those of group B,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). The intervertebral space height,the cross-sectional area of dural sac and the intervertebral foramen area of the 2 groups at each time point after operation were significantly improved compared with those before operation,all with a statistical significance(P<0.05);and there was no significant difference between the 2 groups at each time point after operation(P>0.05). JOA score and ODI of the 2 groups were significantly improved at each time point after operation compared with those before operation,all with a statistical significance(P<0.05);and group A were better than group B at each time point after operation,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with the traditional open TLIF,percutaneous endoscopic TLIF in the treatment of DLSS can effectively reduce the surgical trauma,accelerate the recovery speed,improve the lumbar function,reduce the occurrence of complications,and will not affect the decompression effect.
