Effect of Comprehensive and Integrative Medical Services on Patients with Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: A Pilot Study
Conclusions: Patients with degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis who mainly complain of radiating pain in the lower leg may benefit from CIMS after spinal nerve root block for ≤3 months after treatment. Our study findings suggest that this treatment improves spinal function and Oswestry Disability Index score. However, CIMS did not improve QoL.PMID:38138269 | PMC:PMC10744891 | DOI:10.3390/medicina59122166 (Source: Medicina (Kaunas))

Treatment Concept and Technical Considerations of Biportal Endoscopic Spine Surgery for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
Asian Spine J. 2023 Dec 22. doi: 10.31616/asj.2023.0409. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDecompression must be a major composure of surgical procedures for degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis. In addition to sufficient decompression for guarantee of relieving neurologic pain, compensating surgical instability after wider laminectomy and foraminotomy, and instrumentation with caging and fusion with grafting are performed for securing or restoring foraminal dimension, and correcting coronal/sagittal imbalance for expecting longer survival of adjacent segment. Endoscopic spinal surgery (ESS), full-endoscopic or biportal-, has b...
