Summary

In our study, a multicenter randomized controlled，single blind trial will be performed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of these three procedures for the treatment of symptomatic lumbar disc herniation.

Conditions

  • Lumbar Disc Herniation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

open discectomy

The open discectomy, will be performed under general anesthesia in the prone position with horizontal. The level of the spine indicated for surgical treatment will be identified with the aid of fluoroscopy. An incision is made about the dorsal disc level involved with dissection of the paravertebral muscles on the side of disc herniation. After laminectomy and resection of part of the yellow ligament, partial discectomy is done under direct vision.

PROCEDURE

microendoscopic discectomy

Microendoscopic discectomy combines standard lumbar microsurgical techniques with endoscope, enabling surgeons to successfully address free-fragment disc pathologic factors and lateral recess stenosis.

PROCEDURE

transforaminal endoscopic lumbar discectomy

transforaminal endoscopic lumbar discectomy removes the intervertebral disc portion through the intervertebral foramen
