Abstract:
Objectives:To analyze the early clinical efficacy of modified percutaneous transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion(MPTLIF)in the treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases.Methods:The clinical data of 26 patients who underwent MPTLIF at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University between Jan-uary 2020 and October 2021 were analyzed retrospectively.There were 12 males and 14 females,aged 44-77 years(58.3±8.4 years);Lumbar spondylolisthesis in 16 cases,lumbar spinal instability with radicular stenosis in 10 cases;3 cases were of L3/4 and 23 cases were of L4/5.The operative time,intraoperative bleeding,post-operative hospital stay,and postoperative drainage were analyzed.The visual analogue scale(VAS)for pain was documented before operation,at 3d and 3 months after operation and at the final follow-up,the Oswestry disability index(ODI)was used for evaluation before operation,at 3 months and the final follow-up after oper-ation,and the modified MacNab efficacy evaluation criteria were used to evaluate the clinical efficacy at the final follow-up.The anteroposterior height of the intervertebral space,lumbar lordosis angle,and lordosis an-gle of the operated segment were measured on X-ray and CT images before surgery and at the final follow-up.Results:All the patients successfully underwent the operation with an operative time of 98.9±6.6min,in-traoperative bleeding of 41.0±12.6mL,postoperative drainage of 38.1±9.5mL,and an average postoperative hos-pital stay of 3.8±0.9d without complications such as epidural hematoma,infection,or muscle paralysis and paralysis.The follow-up time was 17.7±4.2 months,and the VAS scores preoperatively,3d postoperatively,3 months postoperatively,and at final follow-up were 5.85±0.67,2.15±0.54,1.12±0.33,0.54±0.51,respectively.The ODI were(47.38±6.66)％,(11.73±6.73)％,and(6.58±6.51)％before operation,at 3 months and the final follow-up,respectively.The VAS scores and ODI at all time points after operation significantly improved compared with the preoperative values(P＜0.05),and which improved over time(P＜0.05).At final follow-up,ac-cording to the modified MacNab criteria,24 cases were evaluated as excellent and 2 cases were evaluated as good.The anteroposterior height of the intervertebral space(anterior edge 10.95±1.24mm,posterior edge 9.45± 1.13mm),lumbar lordosis(47.38°±4.56°)and lordosis angle of the operated segment(8.62°±1.92°)were higher at final follow-up than before operation(anterior edge 8.85±1.00mm,posterior edge 6.78±1.07mm,43.81°±4.85°,6.62°±2.02°),with significant improvement(P＜0.05).Conclusions:MPTLIF is a safe and effective minimally invasive procedure for the treatment of lumbar degenerative disease in cases selected for strict indications,which can achieve great early clinical efficacy.
