Outcomes of Minimal Invasive Spinal Decompression (Mcro lumbar decompression) Technique in Lumbar Canal Stenosis

Dr Vipin Garg

Abstract :

Decompression surgery is an increasingly common operation for the treatment of lumbar canal stenosis. Although good relief from leg pain is expected after surgery, long term results of pain relief and function are more uncertain. This study retrospactively followed a cohort of patients presenting with the signs and symptoms of spinal stenosis, who underwent micro lumbar decompression surgery to ascertain the long term outcome with respect to pain and function using visual analogue pain scores, the Oswestry Disability Index
