BACKGROUND
Transforaminal endoscopic lumbar discectomy (TELD), a minimally invasive spinal technique, has advantages over open discectomy. Unilateral TELD for disc herniation causing bilateral symptoms is challenging. In this study, we describe a percutaneous endoscopic herniotomy technique by using a unilateral approach for lumbar disc herniation with bilateral obvious symptoms.
METHODS
From June 2014 to October 2015, 26 patients who had back as well as bilateral leg pain and/or weakness due to lumbar disc herniation were treated by TELD with a unilateral approach. Clinical outcomes were evaluated via a visual analogue scale (VAS; 0-10), and functional status was assessed with the Oswestry Disability Index (0-100%) postoperatively and 3 and 12 months postoperatively. Surgical satisfaction rate was assessed during the final follow-up.
RESULTS
The mean VAS for leg pain on the operative side improved from preoperative 8.39 ± 1.84 to 2.18 ± 1.26 postoperatively, 1.96 ± 0.83 at 3 months postoperatively, and 2.05 ± 1.42 at 1 year postoperatively (P < 0.01). The mean VAS for leg pain on the contralateral was 7.12 ± 1.74 and improved to 1.57 ± 1.66 postoperatively, 1.22 ± 1.58 at 3 months postoperatively, and 1.15 ± 1.35 at 1 year postoperatively (P < 0.01). The mean preoperative Oswestry Disability was 83.63 ± 8.49, with 23.58 ± 7.24 at 1 week postoperatively, 19.81 ± 11.26 at 3 months postoperatively, and 17.54 ± 13.40 at 12 months postoperatively (P < 0.01). Good or excellent global results were obtained in 96.2% of patients.
CONCLUSIONS
TELD can be effective for lumbar disc herniation causing bilateral symptoms, through one working channel.
背景
经椎间孔内镜下腰椎间盘切除术(TELD)是一种微创脊柱技术,优于开放性椎间盘切除术。采用单侧TELD治疗引起双侧症状的椎间盘突出症具有挑战性。在本研究中,我们描述了一种经皮内镜下疝修补术技术,该技术采用单侧入路治疗具有双侧明显症状的腰椎间盘突出症。
方法
2014年6月至2015年10月,对26例因腰椎间盘突出症导致腰背部及双侧腿痛和/或无力的患者采用单侧入路TELD进行治疗。通过视觉模拟量表(VAS;0 - 10)评估临床结果,并在术后、术后3个月和12个月时用Oswestry功能障碍指数(0 - 100%)评估功能状态。在最后一次随访时评估手术满意率。
结果
患侧腿部疼痛的平均VAS评分从术前的8.39±1.84改善至术后的2.18±1.26,术后3个月为1.96±0.83,术后1年为2.05±1.42(P < 0.01)。对侧腿部疼痛的平均VAS评分术前为7.12±1.74,术后改善至1.57±1.66,术后3个月为1.22±1.58,术后1年为1.15±1.35(P < 0.01)。术前Oswestry功能障碍指数平均为83.63±8.49,术后1周为23.58±7.24,术后3个月为19.81±11.26,术后12个月为17.54±13.40(P < 0.01)。96.2%的患者获得了良好或优秀的总体结果。
结论
TELD通过一个工作通道对引起双侧症状的腰椎间盘突出症可能有效。
