Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to present the surgical technique of percutaneous ventral decompression for degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DLS) in medically compromised geriatric patients and to evaluate its results. Patients and methods: The study included 11 consecutive patients (mean age 67 years; range 51 to 85 years) with DLS accompanied by compressive central canal stenosis and lateral recess stenosis. The affected levels were L3.4 in two patients, and L4.5 in nine patients. All the patients had complaints of bilateral buttock pain, leg pain, and back pain, with significant limi¬tation in ambulation. The mean walking distance before surgery was 150 meters, and the mean preoperative Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score was 72.2%. Coexisting diseases included diabetes (n=4), cardiac disease (n=5) cerebrovascular accident (n=2), or malignancy (n=2). Percutaneous ventral decompression of the thecal sac was performed under local anesthesia through the posterolateral approach and using endoscopic tools, without violation of the posterior bony structure. The mean follow-up period was 25.1 months (range 11 to 38 months). Results: The mean operation time was 72 minutes (range 50 to 100 min). The mean ODI score decreased to 27.4% (range 4% to 54%) at the final follow-up. All the patients could walk without any difficulty after surgery. Postoperative CT images demonstrated an enlarged spinal canal in all the patients. The only complication was transient quadriceps weakness in one patient. None of the patients showed progression of spondylolisthesis. Conclusion: Percutaneous ventral decompression is a safe and effective minimally invasive method for treating DLS in medically compromised geriatric patients, especially when general anesthesia is not recommended.

Özet

Amaç: Riskli hastalıkları olan yaşlı olgularda saptanan dejeneratif lomber spondilolistesis (DLS) perkütan ventral dekompresyon ile tedavi edildi. Bu çalışmada, uygulanan cerrahi teknik, sonuçlarıyla birlikte sunuldu. Hastalar ve yöntemler: Çalışmaya, DLS ile birlikte kompresif santral kanal stenozu ve lateral reses stenozu bulunan 11 ardışık hasta (ort. yaş 67; dağılım 51-85) alındı. Etkilenen düzey iki hastada L3.4, dokuz hastada L4.5 idi. Tüm hastalarda, yürümeyi ciddi derecede kısıtlayan iki taraflı kalça ağrısı, bacak ve sırt ağrısı vardı. Ameliyat öncesinde ortalama yürüme mesafesi 150 metre; Oswestry Sakatlık İndeksi (OSİ) skoru ortalaması %72.2 idi. Tüm ol¬gularda diyabet (n=4), kalp hastalığı (n=5), serebrovasküler olay (n=2) ve malign hastalık (n=2) gibi başka sorunlar görüldü. Tedavi olarak, tekal kesenin perkütan ventral dekompresyonu, lokal anestezi altında, posterolateral yaklaşımla ve endoskopik yolla, posterior kemik yapısına zarar vermeden gerçekleştirildi. Ortalama izlem süresi 25.1 ay (dağılım 11-28 ay) idi. Bulgular: Ortalama ameliyat süresi 72 dakika (dağılım 50-100 dakika) bulundu. Ortalama OSİ skoru ameliyattan sonraki son kontrolde %27.4'e düştü (dağılım %4-54). Cerrahi sonrasında tüm hastalar güçlük çekmeden yürüyebiliyordu. Tüm hastaların ameliyat sonrası bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntülerinde spinal kanalın genişlemiş olduğu gözlendi. Tek komplikasyon olarak bir hastada geçici kuadriseps zayıflığı gelişti. Spondilolistesis hiçbir hastada ilerleme göstermedi. Sonuç: Perkütan ventral dekompresyon, riskli hastalıkları olan yaşlı olgularda, özellikle genel anestezi önerilmiyorsa, DLS tedavisinde güvenli ve etkili bir minimal invaziv cerrahi yöntemdir.
