This review aims to systematically evaluate the incidence, management strategies, and clinical outcomes of iatrogenic durotomy (ID) in endoscopic spine surgery and to propose a management flowchart based on the tear size and associated complications. A comprehensive literature search was conducted, focusing on studies involving endoscopic spinal procedures and incidental durotomy. The selected studies were analyzed for management techniques and outcomes, particularly in relation to the size of the dural tear and the presence of nerve root herniation. Based on these findings, a flowchart for intraoperative management was developed. A total of 14 studies were included, encompassing 68,546 patients. Varying incidences of ID, with management strategies largely dependent on the size of the dural tear, were found. Small tears (less than 5 mm) were often left untreated or managed with absorbable hemostatic agents, while medium (5-10 mm) and large tears (greater than 10 mm) required more complex approaches like endoscopic patch repair or open surgery. The presence of nerve root herniation necessitated immediate action, often influencing the decision to convert to open repair. Effective management of ID in endoscopic spine surgery requires a nuanced approach tailored to the size of the tear and specific intraoperative challenges, such as nerve root herniation. The proposed flowchart offers a structured approach to these complexities, potentially enhancing clinical outcomes and reducing complication rates. Future research with more rigorous methodologies is necessary to refine these management strategies further and broaden the applications of endoscopic spine surgery.
本综述旨在系统评估内镜脊柱手术中医源性硬脊膜切开术(ID)的发生率、管理策略和临床结果,并根据撕裂大小及相关并发症提出管理流程图。进行了全面的文献检索,重点关注涉及内镜脊柱手术及意外硬脊膜切开术的研究。对所选研究的管理技术和结果进行分析,特别是与硬脊膜撕裂大小及神经根疝的存在情况相关的内容。基于这些发现,制定了术中管理流程图。共纳入14项研究,涵盖68546例患者。发现ID的发生率各不相同,管理策略很大程度上取决于硬脊膜撕裂的大小。小撕裂(小于5毫米)通常不做处理或用可吸收止血剂处理,而中等大小(5 - 10毫米)和大撕裂(大于10毫米)则需要更复杂的方法,如内镜修补或开放手术。神经根疝的存在需要立即采取行动,这常常影响转为开放修复的决定。在内镜脊柱手术中有效管理ID需要根据撕裂大小及特定的术中挑战(如神经根疝)采取细致入微的方法。所提出的流程图为应对这些复杂性提供了一种结构化方法,可能改善临床结果并降低并发症发生率。有必要开展采用更严谨方法的未来研究,以进一步完善这些管理策略并拓宽内镜脊柱手术的应用范围。
