Early efficacy of endoscopic laminectomy and traditional hemilaminectomy for lumbar spinal stenosis / 中华骨科杂志

Objective@#To compare the clinical effects of endoscopic laminectomy with traditional hemilaminectomy for lumbar spinal stenosis.@*Methods@#From January 2016 to April 2017, 61 patients with lumbar spinal stenosis were treated surgi-cally. Percutaneous endoscopic laminectomy was performed in 32 patients (minimally invasive group), including 13 males and 19 females, aged 38-76 years, with an average age of 58.47±7.51 years. Twenty-nine patients (open group) underwent hemilaminecto-my, including 11 males and 18 females, aged 38-75 years, with an average age of 57.17±9.99 years. The operation time, bleeding, incision length, bedridden time and hospitalization time were recorded. Visual analogue scale(VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI), dural sac cross-sectional area (DSCA), ventral intervertebral space height (VH), dorsal intervertebral space height (DH) and lumbar mobility (range of motion, ROM) were compared between the two groups.@*Results@#All of 61 patients were followed up for 14 to 27 months, with an average of 19.2±2.95 months. The operation time was 60.88±6.49 min in the minimally invasive group, and 52.07±9.45 min in the open group (t=4.277, P=0.000). The blood loss of minimally invasive group was 55.63±10.14 ml, and that of open group was 78.79±12.58 ml (t=7.952, P=0.000). The incision length of minimally invasive group was 23.31±4.56 mm, and open group 82.59±7.66 mm (t=12.047, P=0.000). Bed rest time was 21.97±6.42 h in minimally invasive group and 78.79±12.58 h in open group (t=12.047, P=0.000). The hospitalization time of the minimally invasive group was 8.53±2.75 d and the open group 11.34±3.12 d (t=3.745, P=0.000). All these parameters had statistical significance (P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the VAS score of minimally invasive group was 1.06±0.56, and the open group was 1.14±0.74 (t=0.469, P=0.634). ROM of open group was 5.66±1.12 degree, and ROM of minimally invasive group was 5.56±1.13 degree (t=0.140, P=0.710), VH of minimally invasive group was 14.75±2.81 mm, and open group was 14.44±2.89 mm (t=0.181, P=0.672). There was no significant difference between the two groups for these parameters. At the last follow-up, ODI score was 13.25%±1.08% in the minimally invasive group and 14.28%±2.10% in open group (t=5.911, P=0.018). DSCA score was 108.56±8.69 mm2 in the minimally invasive group, and 117.28±11.09 mm2 in open group (t=11.774, P=0.001). There were significant differences between the two groups for ODI and DS-CA.@*Conclusion@#Both endoscopic and open laminectomy have excellent clinical effects on lumbar spinal stenosis. Endoscop-ic laminectomy has the advantages of less local trauma, less damage to the stability of the lumbar spine and faster recovery. However, there's a higher technical requirement for endoscopic spine surgery.

Effect of ephedrine on hypotension by laying down legs in lithotomy pos ition after the aged transurethral resection of prostate with epidural anesthesi a / 中国临床药理学与治疗学

AIM: To observe the effect of small dose ephedrine on hypote ns ion as the lithotomy position in laying down legs after the aged in the operatio ns with epidural anesthesia. METHODS: Twenty-seven ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱma le patients, aged 65-83 (71? 6.5 ) years undergoing transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) with the lithotomy position were randomly assigned to two gro ups by double blind method: ephedrine group (n=13) and contrasti ve group (n=14). The continual epidural anesthesia was administe red in T 12 -L 1 and L 3-4 for all patients used 1.5 % lidocaine. W hen the operation was finished off, before thirty seconds of horizontal position laying down legs, 15 mg ephedrine was iv at ephedrine group and 3 ml saline wat er at control group. After legs were laid down on the lithotomy position, variab les of SBP, MBP and P were recorded in ten minutes. RESULTS: Dur ing ten minutes after double legs were laid down, the variables were lightly ris en about 8.7 % to 76.9 % in ephedrine group and were fallen about 7.8 % to 85.7 % in control group. The difference on variables of two groups was significant (P
