Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the clinical effects, complications and operational key points of the percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy (PETD) and percutaneous endoscopic interlaminar discectomy (PEID) in treating LS disc herniation.
METHODS:The clinical data of 158 patients with L5S1 disc herniation treated from July 2015 to March 2018 were restospectively analyzed. According to different surgical approaches, the patients were divided into PETD group or PEID group, 79 cases in each group. In PETD group, there were 41 males and 38 females, with an average age of (41.38±6.25) years and course of disease of (10.06±3.14) months. In PEID group, there were 43 males and 36 females, with an average age of (41.18±5.78) years and course of disease of (9.99±2.83) months. The operation length, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, days of hospital stay, and complications were recorded between two groups. Visual analogue score (VAS), Japanese Orthopedic Association(JOA) score, Oswestry Disability Index(ODI), modified Macnab criteria were used to assessed clinical effects after operation.
RESULTS:All patients completed surgery and were followed up for more than 1 year. (1) There were no significant differences in the intraoperative blood loss or hospitalization length between two groups(>0.05). The operation length and intraoperative fluoroscopy times in PETD group were significantly higher than in PEID group (<0.05). (2)VAS, JOA scores, ODI at 1 week, 6 months, or 12 months after operation were significantly improved between two groups (<0.05), but there was no statistical significance between two groups(>0.05). (3)The excellence rate was 89.87% (71 / 79) in PETD group and 87.34% (69 / 79) in PEID group at the latest follow-up, with no statistical significance(>0.05). (4)Complications occurred in 2 cases in PETD group and in 3 cases in PEID group, with no significant differences between two groups.
CONCLUSION:The short term efficacy of the PETD is equal to that of the PEID for the LS disc herniation, but PEID is superior in the operation length, the access of stereotaxic puncture and intraoperative fluoroscopy times. The complications can be effectively reduced by following the indications, mastering the endoscopic technique, operating carefully and being familiar with the key points of common complications.
