Orthopedic robot-assisted endoscopic transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion for lumbar disc herniation with lumbar instability
Objective To explore the safety and effectiveness of the robot-assisted system for transforaminal percutaneous endoscopic in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation with lumbar instability.Methods From October 2021 to March 2023,26 patients with single-segment lumbar disc herniation and lumbar spinal instability were treated with robot-assisted system for transforaminal percutaneous endoscopic.The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,incision length,postoperative drainage volume,postoperative ambulation activity time,postoperative hospitalization time were record.The intervertebral space height and the lumbar lordosis angle before and after surgery were observed and compared.Pain level was evaluated using the visual analogue scale(VAS).The clinical efficacy was evaluated by Oswestry disability index(ODI).The interbody fusion was evalu-ated by Brantigan Steffee criteria.Results All patients successfully completed the operation,the operation time ranged form 105 to 109 min with an average of(150.8±24.1)min.Intraoperative blood loss ranged form 35 to 88 ml with an average of(55.5±16.4)ml.Incision length ranged form 1.4 to 3.5 cm with an average of(2.3±0.8)cm.Postoperative drainage volume ranged form 15 to 40 ml with an average of(28.5±7.8)ml.Postoperative ambulation time ranged form 15 to 30 h with an aver-age of(22.8±4.5)h.Postoperative hospitalization time was 3 to 7 d with an average of(4.2±1.3)d.Total of 26 patients were followed up,the duration ranged from 12 to 16 months with an average of(14.0±1.3)months.The VAS and ODI at 1 week[(2.96±0.72)points,(41.63±4.79)％]and 12 months[(1.27±0.60)points,(13.11±2.45)％]were significantly different from those before surgery[(6.69±0.93)points,(59.12±5.92)％],P＜0.0 1.The height of the intervertebral space(11.95±1.47)mm and lumbar lordosis(57.46±7.59)° at 12 months were significantly different from those before surgery[(6.67±1.20)mm,(44.08±7.79)°],P＜0.01.At 12 months after surgery,all patients had no pedicle screw rupture or dislocation of the fusion cage,and the intervertebral fusion was successful.According to Brantigan-Steffee classification,17 cases were grade D and 9 cases were grade E.Conclusion Robot-assisted system for transforaminal percutaneous endoscopic for the treatment of single-segment lumbar disc herniation with lumbar instability improved the accuracy and safety of the operation,and the clinical effect of early follow-up is accurate.
