No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This is a prospective single-center study. Patients requiring posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) for degenerative disease are prospectively enrolled and followed. Patients enrolled in this study have asymptomatic pre-existing spinal canal stenosis at adjacent segment. This study will focus on the effects of preventative limited decompression at adjacent segment.

Conditions

  • Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
  • Degenerative Disc Disease
  • Degeneration Spine

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Limited decompressions at adjacent segment with asymptomatic pre-existing spinal canal stenosis

In terms of limited decompression at the adjacent segment, partial laminotomy, flavectomy, and bilateral medial facetectomies up to the pedicle will be performed. Complete laminectomy and destroy of posterior ligament complex will be avoided.

PROCEDURE

Responsible segments fused

In terms of responsible segments fused, L4-5 and L5-S1 were fused using posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF).
