          Abstract

          Objective

          This study sets out to investigate the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with magnetic resonance myelography (MRM) in patients after percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic discectomy (PTED) and to evaluate its value in postoperative rehabilitation.

          Methods

          The clinical date of 96 patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH) after PTED was retrospectively analyzed. The enrolled patients were divided into MRI group ( n = 32) and MRI + MRM group ( n = 64) according to whether MRM was performed. The nerve root sleeve (morphology, deformation) and dural indentation, intervertebral space height (ISH), intervertebral space angle (ISA), degree of pain (Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)), vertebral function (Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA)), and long-term recurrence were compared between the two groups.

          Results

          Compared with the MRI group, the MRI + MRM group better displayed nerve root morphology, sheath sleeve deformation, and dural indentation. Both MRI and MRI + MRM showed ISH and ISA changes well. Compared with the MRI group, the MRI + MRM group had a significantly lower VAS score for lumbar and leg pain, a significantly higher JOA score, and a significantly lower 2-year recurrence rate.

          Conclusion

          MRM combined with MRI is more beneficial to improve the prognosis of LDH patients after PTED.

          Measurement Properties of Visual Analogue Scale, Numeric Rating Scale, and Pain Severity Subscale of the Brief Pain Inventory in Patients With Low Back Pain: A Systematic Review

          Alessandro Chiarotto, Lara J Maxwell, Raymond W. Ostelo … (2019)
          The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), and Pain Severity subscale of the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI-PS) are the most frequently used instruments to measure pain intensity in low back pain. However, their measurement properties in this population have not been reviewed systematically. The goal of this study was to provide such systematic evidence synthesis. Six electronic sources (MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, SportDiscus, Google Scholar) were searched (July 2017). Studies assessing any measurement property in patients with nonspecific low back pain were included. Two reviewers independently screened articles and assessed risk of bias using the COSMIN checklist. For each measurement property, evidence quality was rated as high, moderate, low, or very low (GRADE approach) and results were classified as sufficient, insufficient, or inconsistent. Ten studies assessed the VAS, 13 the NRS, 4 the BPI-PS. The 3 instruments displayed low or very low quality evidence for content validity. High-quality evidence was only available for NRS insufficient measurement error. Moderate evidence was available for NRS inconsistent responsiveness, BPI-PS sufficient structural validity and internal consistency, and BPI-PS inconsistent construct validity. All VAS measurement properties were underpinned by no, low, or very low quality evidence; likewise, the other measurement properties of NRS and BPI-PS. PERSPECTIVES: Despite their broad use, there is no evidence clearly suggesting that one among VAS, NRS, and BPI-PS has superior measurement properties in low back pain. Future adequate quality head-to-head comparisons are needed and priority should be given to assessing content validity, test-retest reliability, measurement error, and responsiveness.

            Comparison of percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy, microendoscopic discectomy, and microdiscectomy for symptomatic lumbar disc herniation: minimum 2-year follow-up results

            Xinyu Liu, Suomao Yuan, Yonghao Tian … (2018)
            This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy (PETD), microendoscopic discectomy (MED), and microdiscectomy (MD) for treatment of symptomatic lumbar disc herniation (LDH). One hundred ninety-two patients with symptomatic LDH at L3–4 and L4–5 were included in this study. The mean (± SD) age of patients was 34.2 ± 2.6 years (range 18–62 years). The patients were divided into groups as follows: group A was treated with PETD and included 60 patients (31 men and 29 women) with a mean age of 36.2 years; group B was treated with MED and included 63 patients (32 men and 31 women) with a mean age of 33.1 years; and group C was treated with MD and included 69 patients (36 men and 33 women) with a mean age of 34.0 years. The Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scale for low-back pain (LBP), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), creatine phosphokinase activity 3 days after surgery, and visual analog scale (VAS) scores for LBP and leg pain were used for evaluation of clinical results. There were no significant differences in mean preoperative JOA score, ODI score, and VAS scores for LBP and leg pain among groups A, B, and C. Incision length, duration of the operation, blood loss, creatine phosphokinase, length of hospital stay, and postoperative incision pain according to the VAS were best in the PETD group (p < 0.05). The number of seconds of intraoperative fluoroscopy was highest in the PETD group (p < 0.05), whereas there was no difference between the MED and MD groups. Three cases from the MED group and 2 cases from the MD group had an intraoperative durotomy. No CSF leakage was observed after surgery. One case from the MED group and 3 cases from the MD group had incision infections. There were no neurological deficits related to the surgeries in any of the groups. Fifty-five (91.6%), 59 (93.7%), and 62 patients (89.9%) had at least 2 years of follow-up in groups A, B, and C, respectively. At the last follow-up, JOA scores, VAS scores of LBP and leg pain, and ODI scores were significantly better than preoperative correlates in all groups. There were no differences among the 3 groups in JOA scores, JOA recovery rate, ODI scores, and VAS scores for leg pain. The VAS score for LBP was best in the PETD group (p < 0.05). No lumbar instability was observed in any group. Three cases (5.5%) in the PETD group had recurrent LDH, and 2 recurrent cases (3.4%) were confirmed in the MED group. PETD, MED, and MD were all reliable techniques for the treatment of symptomatic LDH. With a restricted indication, PETD can result in rapid recovery and better clinical results after at least 2 years of follow-up.

              Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy for L5S1 Lumbar Disc Herniation Using a Transforaminal Approach Versus an Interlaminar Approach: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

              Jiageng Chen, Xiyue Jing, Changping Li … (2018)
              Several studies have compared the clinical efficacy of percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy for L5-S1 lumbar disc herniation (LDH) using a transforaminal approach with an interlaminar approach, but with contradictory results. The aim of this study was to explore the comparison of efficacy and safety between percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy (PETD) and percutaneous endoscopic interlaminar discectomy (PEID) for L5-S1 LDH.
