Combination of Percutaneous Unilateral Translaminar Facet Screw Fixation and Interbody Fusion for Treatment of Lower Lumbar Vertebra Diseases: a Follow-Up Study

摘要

Twenty-nine adult patients with lower lumbar disease underwent sight-guided percutaneous unilateral TLFSF combined with microsurgical spinal decompression, discectomy, and interbody fusion from June 2007 to June 2008. All 29 patients had low back pain caused by lumbar disc degeneration (20 cases), in situ recurrent lumbar disc herniation (2), primary diskitis (1), lumbar disc herniation with spinal stenosis (3), and first-degree lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis (3). Twenty-three cases had lesions at L4,5; three at L5S1, one at L3,4, L4,5, and two at L4,5, L5S1.
