Abstract:
The efficacy of TESSYS technique in treating the far lateral lumbar disc herniation was analyzed retrospectively.From June 2017 to June 2019, 11 patients with far lateral lumbar disc herniation underwent surgery were selected as F group, and 13 patients with central or paracentral lumbar disc herniation were selected as L group, regardless of gender, with the age of 51-66 yr.Preoperative selective nerve root block was performed under the guidance of ultrasound to determine the diseased disc, and then discectomy was performed using TESSYS technique in both groups.Pain was assessed using Visual Analogue Scale score at l day before surgery and 3 days and 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery.Patient′s function was assessed by using the Oswestry Disability Index at l day before surgery and 6 months after surgery.The therapeutic effect was evaluated using the modified Macnab criteria at 6 months after surgery.Compared with group L, no significant change was found in Visual Analogue Scale scores at each time point after surgery, Oswestry Disability Index scores at 6 months after surgery, and Macnab outcome grade at 6 months after surgery in group F ( P>0.05). In conclusion, TESSY technique can be used to treat the far lateral lumbar disc herniation.
