- Abstract: Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of Delta endoscopic lumbar decompression fusion for the treatment of giant lumbar disc herniation(GILDH).Method A retrospective analysis was performed on 36 cases of GILDH from April 2020 to May 2022,including 18 cases in the Delta group and 18 cases in the open group.There was no statistically significant difference in gender,age,and responsible section between the two groups of patients.Compare the surgical time,perioperative indicators,and clinical efficacy between the two groups.Results The intraoperative bleeding and drainage volume in the Delta group were lower than those in the open group,the incision length and hospital stay were shorter than those in the open group,the degree of paraspinal muscle injury was lighter than that in the open group,and the surgical time was longer than that in the open group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05);The lumbago visual analogue scale(VAS)of the two groups of patients at each postoperative period was significantly reduced compared to preoperative,and the lumbar spine function score of the Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA)was significantly increased compared to preoperative,with statistical significance(P＜0.05);The lumbago VAS of the Delta group was significantly lower than that of the open group at all postoperative stages,and the lumbar spine function JOA score was significantly higher than that of the open group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05);There was no statistically significant difference in the modified MacNab score between the two groups of patients at the last follow-up after surgery(P＞0.05).Conclusion Delta endoscopic lumbar decompression fusion for GILDH has significant therapeutic effects,with advantages such as less bleeding,small surgical incision,and fast postoperative recovery;After crossing the Delta endoscopic learning curve and optimizing the surgical process,this technology can become an alternative to conventional open surgery.
