Facet-sparing lumbar decompression with a minimally invasive flexible MicroBlade Shaver® versus traditional decompression: quantitative radiographic assessment
BACKGROUND Laminectomy/laminotomy and foraminotomy are well established surgical techniques for treatment of symptomatic lumbar spinal stenosis. However, these procedures have significant limitations, including limited access to lateral and foraminal compression and postoperative instability. The purpose of this cadaver study was to compare bone, ligament, and soft tissue morphology following l...
متن کاملCorrelation between pain relief and patient satisfaction.
P is one of the most common complaints in patients referred to the emergency departments (ED). Accurate assessment of pain intensity, which is a necessary prerequisite to rational choice of analgesics, represents a clinically challenging proposition.1 Inadequate pain management is frequently seen in the ED’s. Lack of adequate pain relief remains a major challenge for health care providers. Pati...
متن کاملContralateral facet-sparing sublaminar endoscopic foraminotomy for the treatment of lumbar lateral recess stenosis: technical note.
Lumbar lateral recess stenosis that results from a degenerative bulging of the disc and overgrowth of the facet is a very common cause for lumbar radiculopathy in the elderly. The standard surgical treatment for symptomatic lumbar lateral recess stenosis often requires a laminectomy or hemi-laminectomy and medial facetectomy which can further destabilize a pathological motion segment. The autho...
متن کاملChanges in foraminal area with anterior decompression versus keyhole foraminotomy in the cervical spine: a biomechanical investigation.
OBJECTIVE Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) with or without partial uncovertebral joint resection (UVR) and posterior keyhole foraminotomy are established operative procedures to treat cervical disc degeneration and radiculopathy. Studies have demonstrated reliable results with each procedure, but none have compared the change in neuroforaminal area between indirect and direct deco...
متن کاملCervical Cord Decompression Using Extended Anterior Cervical Foraminotomy Technique
OBJECTIVE At present, gold-standard technique of cervical cord decompression is surgical decompression and fusion. But, many complications related cervical fusion have been reported. We adopted an extended anterior cervical foraminotomy (EACF) technique to decompress the anterolateral portion of cervical cord and report clinical results and effectiveness of this procedure. METHODS Fifty-three...
