SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic discectomy (PTED) in the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) combined with osteoporosis. METHODS: Eighty patients with LSS combined with osteoporosis were divided into a control and PTED group, which received conventional transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion and PTED, respectively. The surgical indications, incision visual analogue scale (VAS), lumbar and leg pain VAS, lumbar Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) scores, bone mineral density (BMD), and adverse reactions were observed. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, in the PTED group, the operation time, bleeding loss and hospitalization duration, incision VAS scores at postoperative 12, 24 and 48 h and lumbar and leg pain VAS and lumbar ODI scores on postoperative 6 months were significantly decreased (P < 0.01), and the lumbar JOA score on postoperative 6 months was significantly increased (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in BMD between two groups (P > 0.05). Compared with the control group, in the PTED group, the total effective rate was significantly higher (P < 0.05), and the incidence of adverse reactions was significantly lower (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: PTED is safe and effective in the treatment of LSS combined with osteoporosis.
RESUMO: OBJETIVO: Investigar a eficácia e segurança da discectomia endoscópica percutânea transforaminal (DEPT) no tratamento da estenose lombar (EL) combinada à osteoporose. MÉTODOS: Oitenta pacientes com EL combinada à osteoporose foram divididos entre um grupo de controle e um grupo de DEPT, que receberam tratamento convencional com fusão intersomática lombar transforaminal e DEPT, respectivamente. As indicações cirúrgicas, a escala analógica visual (VAS) da incisão e de dor lombar e nas pernas, os escores lombares de acordo com a Associação Ortopédica Japonesa (JOA) e o Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), a densidade mineral óssea (DMO) e possíveis reações adversas foram observados. RESULTADOS: Em comparação com o grupo de controle, no grupo de DEPT o tempo de operação, a perda de sangue e duração de internação, os escores VAS da incisão no pós-operatório após 12, 24 e 48 h, o VAS para dor lombar e nas pernas e os escores ODI lombares após 6 meses de pós-operatório foram significativamente menores (P < 0,01); já o escore JOA lombar após 6 meses de pós-operatório foi significativamente maior (P < 0,05). Não houve diferença significativa na densidade mineral óssea entre os dois grupos (P > 0,05). Em comparação com o grupo de controle, o grupo de DEPT teve uma taxa efetiva total significativamente maior (P < 0,05), e a incidência de reações adversas foi significativamente menor (P < 0,05). CONCLUSÕES: A discectomia endoscópica percutânea transforaminal é segura e eficaz no tratamento de EL combinada à osteoporose.

This study aimed to examine the biocompatibility of calcium titanate (CaTiO3) coating prepared by a simplified technique in an attempt to assess the potential of CaTiO3 coating as an alternative to current implant coating materials.CaTiO3-coated titanium screws were implanted with hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated or uncoated titanium screws into medial and lateral femoral condyles of 48 New Zealand white rabbits.Imaging,histomorphometric and biomechanical analyses were employed to evaluate the osseointegration and biocompatibility 12 weeks after the implantation.Histology and scanning electron microscopy revealed that bone tissues surrounding the screws coated with CaTiO3 were fully regenerated and they were also.well integrated with the screws.An interfacial fibrous membrane layer,which was found in the HA coating group,was not noticeable between the bone tissues and CaTiO3-coated screws.X-ray imaging analysis showed in the CaTiO3 coating group,there was a dense and tight binding between implants and the bone tissues;no radiation translucent zone was found surrounding the implants as well as no detachment of the coating and femoral condyle fracture.In contrast,uncoated screws exhibited a fibrous membrane layer,as evidenced by the detection of a radiation translucent zone between the implants and the bone tissues.Additionally,biomechanical testing revealed that the binding strength of CaTiO3 coating with bone tissues was significantly higher than that of uncoated titanium screws,and was comparable to that of HA coating.The study demonstrated that CaTiO3 coating in situ to titanium screws possesses great biocompatibility and osseointegration comparable to HA coating.
