Abstract:
Objectives:To explore the clinical use and observe the clinical efficacy of the Pivox system in oblique lateral interbody fusion(OLIF)in treating single-segment lumbar spinal diseases.Methods:The clini-cal data of patients with single-segment lumbar spinal diseases(Discogenic low back pain,lumbar spondylolis-thesis,lumbar spinal stenosis)who underwent OLIF without posterior instrumentation from May 2020 to Jan-uary 2021 in our hospital were collected,including 36 males and 33 females,aged 32-79 years old(59.1±5.9 years).And the patients were divided into OLIF stand-alone group(39 patients)and Pivox+OLIF group(30 pa-tients).The perioperative parameters of the two groups of patients were compared,including incision length,operative time,intraoperative blood loss,and length of hospital stay.The visual analogue scale(VAS)and Os-westry disability index(ODI)were assessed before operation,at 1 week,1,3,6 and 12 months after operation for clinical efficacy.The intervertebral disc height,foraminal height and foraminal area before and after oper-ation,and the fusion rate were evaluated and compared between the two groups.Complications were recorded and compared as well.Results:The patients were followed up for 14.0±0.3 months(12-18 months).No signif-icant differences were found between the two groups in gender,age,disease type,operative level,bone min-eral density(BMD),or body mass index(BMI)(P>0.05).The operative time in OLIF group was shorter than that in Pivox+OLIF group(P<0.05),while there were no significant differences in blood loss,incision length and hospital stay(P>0.05).The VAS score and ODI index in both groups before surgery were higher than those at 1 week,1 month,3 months,6 months,and 12 months after surgery(P<0.05).No significant differences in VAS and ODI were found at 1 week,1 month,3 months,6 months,and 12 months after surgery between the two groups,respectively(P>0.05).The intervertebral disc height,foraminal height and foraminal area at postoperative 1 week,6 and 12 months were all greater than those before operation in both groups,while the increase values of intervertebral disc height,foraminal height and foraminal area in Pivox+OLIF group were greater than those in OLIF group at 1 week,and 6 and 12 months after surgery,but without statistical differ-ences(P>0.05).Cage subsidence occurred in both groups,and cage displacement was noticed in two cases in the OLIF group,while none was there in the Pivox+OLIF group.There were no significant differences in fu-sion rate and incidence of complications between two groups(P>0.05).Conclusions:The short-term effect of Pivox+OLIF procedure in the treatment of single-segment lumbar degenerative diseases is satisfactory,but comparing with stand-alone OLIF,Pivox+OLIF has no obvious advantage in spinal canal decompression and preventing cage subsidence.
