About this study

Official title: Comparative Study Between Unilateral Biportal Endoscopy Technique and Percutaneous Endoscopic Transforaminal Discectomy for the Treatment of Lumbar Spinal Canal Stenosis

OBJECTIVE Both unilateral biportal endoscopy technique(UBE) and percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy(PETD) are minimally invasive and effective surgical procedures for lumbar spinal stenosis.The object of this retrospective study was to compare the clinical and radiological outcomes between UBE and PETD.

METHODS In the period from July 2020 to December 2020, using UBE or PETD to treat lumbar canal stenosis.Patients were classified into two groups based on the surgery they had undergone. Preoperative and postoperative MR image was used to evaluate the removal rate of lumbar disc herniated material by two surgical methods. The two surgical methods are also compared and evaluated in terms of operation time, incision size, hospitalization time, etc.

Read the detailed description

It was performed as a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data on patients received spinal endoscopic decompression between July 2020 to December 2020 was conducted. All patients underwent lumbar MRI examination with the result of L5-S1 disc herniation,accompanied by claudication or lower extremity radiation pain and other nerve compression symptoms. The symptoms have not improved with conservative treatments including physical therapy, medication, and epidural injection procedures for a minimum of 12 weeks. Patients who hadprevious spine surgery, infection, trauma, tumors or spondylolisthesis were excluded. The surgery was performed by the same experienced spinal surgeon and the surgical patient were closely followed for 3 months after surgery.

The investigators performed two kinds of endoscopic lumbar discectomy:unilateral biportal endoscopy technique(UBE) and percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy(PETD).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Cross-sectional area of the preoperative lumbar intervertebral disc

    The preoperative axial T2-weighted MRI slices of the patient can be used to measure the cross-sectional area of the intervertebral disc of the diseased segment.

    Measured: preoperative

  2. Cross-sectional area of the preoperative spinal canal

    The preoperative axial T2-weighted MRI slices of the patient can be used to measure the cross-sectional area of the spinal canal of the diseased segment.

    Measured: preoperative

  3. Cross-sectional area of the postoperative lumbar intervertebral disc

    The postoperative axial T2-weighted MRI slices of the patient can be used to measure the cross-sectional area of the intervertebral disc of the diseased segment.

    Measured: 3 months after surgery

  4. preoperative ODI

    According to the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), evaluate the preoperative ODI of participants.

    Measured: preoperative

  5. ODI on 3 months after operation

    According to the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), evaluate the ODI of participants on 3 months after operation.

    Measured: 3 months after surgery

  6. ODI at the final follow-up

    According to the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), evaluate the ODI of participants at the final follow-up.

    Measured: Final follow-up

  7. preoperative VAS back pain score

    According to the visual analog scale (VAS) scoring standard, assess the preoperative VAS back pain score of participants.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cross-sectional area of the preoperative lumbar intervertebral disc (time frame: preoperative). The study lists 14 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
