Abstract
Objective. To compare open and minimally invasive decompression and stabilization for recurrent pain in the lumbar spine.
Material and Methods. The study included 138 patients who underwent reoperation on the lumbar spine. They were divided into two groups: Group I (minimally invasive surgery, n = 67) and Group II (open surgery, n = 71).
Results. Results were evaluated up to 3 months after surgery. The average blood loss was 332.8 ml in Group I, and 702.8 ml - in Group II, the average size of the surgical wound was 38 ± 12 and 472 ± 56 cm2, respectively. Good result was achieved in 28.9 % of cases in Group I, and in 19.5 % in Group II; unsatisfactory result was observed in 15.8 % and in 24.4 %, respectively.
Conclusion. Results of minimally invasive decompression and stabilization for recurrent pain are comparable with those of open procedures, but are achieved in a less traumatic way.
