显微外科技术在腰椎间盘突出症治疗中的应用

Application of microsurgical technique in the treatment oflumbar intervertebral disc prolapse

应用显微外科技术治疗３５４例腰椎间盘突出及侧隐窝狭窄病人，其中腰椎间盘突出３３０例；侧隐窝狭窄２４例。结果表明，手术效果优良。手术时间短，创伤小，出血少，下地活动早，复发率低。明显好转率在９５％以上。

From 1983 to 1996, 354 cases of the lumbar intervertebral disc prolapse were treated by the microsurgical technique in our hospital. Among them, 330 cases were the simple prolapse of the lumbar intervertebral disc, the other 24 cases were complicated with the lateral recess stenosis. The application of the microsurgical technique has the advantage of its precision, shorter operative time, little surgical trauma, less bleeding, and quicker recovery. So the patients can usually get up and move around at an earlier time. Ninetyfive percent of the patients acquired good results. It is suggested that the microsurgical technique is a relatively good operative method in the treatment of the lumbar intervertebral disc prolapse and the lateral recess stenosis.
