Abstract:
Objective To explore the application value of simple drawing line puncture combined with visual articular process arthroplasty in lateral foraminoscopy.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 89 patients with single-segment lumbar disc herniation treated with lateral foraminoscopy from May 2019 to December 2022,including traditional transforaminal endoscopic spine system(TESSYS)technology(conventional group,35 cases)and simple drawing line puncture combined with visual articular process arthroplasty(modified group,54 cases).The fluoroscopy times,puncture time,and operation time of the two groups were compared.The Visual Analogue Score(VAS),Oswestry Disability Index(ODI),and MacNab criteria were used to evaluate the surgical effect at 3 d after surgery and at the last follow-up.Results All the operations were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery.In the conventional group,there was 1 case of L4 nerve root injury,who was considered intraoperative nerve root compression injury.There was no abnormality in lower limb muscle strength after surgery,but hyperalgesia and numbness in the innervated cutaneous area accompanied by nocturnal cramps.The patient was given treatment with pregabalin,mecobalamin,vitamin B1 and B6 for 2 months,and returned to normal at 1 year of follow-up.The other cases had no complications such as dural injury,abdominal organ injury,or incision infection.Recurrence occurred in 1 case in the conventional group and 2 cases in the modified group,and all the 3 cases occurred within 3 months after operation.Among them,2 patients had severe symptoms and underwent endoscopic revision again,and the other patient improved after conservative treatment.Compared with the conventional group,the puncture times[(1.8±0.7)times vs.(7.5±1.1)times,t=27.543,P=0.000].fluoroscopy times[(5.7±1.8)times vs.(23.2±2.2)times,t=41.235,P=0.000]and operation time[(72.7±7.2)min vs.(92.7±7.7)min,t=12.317,P=0.000]in the modified group were significantly reduced or shortened,and there was no significant difference in postoperative hospital stay[(3.2±0.6)d vs.(3.3±0.6)d,t=0.062,P=0.951]between the two groups.The conventional group was followed up for(14.0±1.3)months and the modified group was followed up for(13.6±1.2)months.There were no significant differences in VAS scores[(1.5±0.6)points vs.(1.6±0.7)points,t=0.751,P=0.455].ODI[(10.8±3.4)％vs.(11.8±3.9)％,t=1.284,P=0.202].and excellent and good rate of MacNab criteria[100％(54/54)vs.100％(35/35),Z=-0.981,P=0.327]between the two groups at the last follow-up.Conclusions Simple drawing line puncture combined with visual articular process arthroplasty can significantly improve the accuracy of intervertebral foramen aspiration,with simple operation,reduced X-ray exposure for doctors and patients,shortened operation time,and improved surgical safety.It is worthy of promotion and application in percutaneous foraminoscopy.
