近年来,单侧椎板切开双侧减压(unilateral laminotomy for bilateral decompression,ULBD)技术在脊柱外科领域已经成为一种新兴的手术技术,得到越来越多研究者的认可。内镜辅助下行ULBD技术,术中可以获得更加清晰的视野而避免损伤硬膜...近年来,单侧椎板切开双侧减压(unilateral laminotomy for bilateral decompression,ULBD)技术在脊柱外科领域已经成为一种新兴的手术技术,得到越来越多研究者的认可。内镜辅助下行ULBD技术,术中可以获得更加清晰的视野而避免损伤硬膜囊及神经根,在保留脊柱的生理解剖结构的同时增大了术后脊柱稳定性,提高患者满意度及生活质量。该技术要求术者对解剖结构、手术步骤及器械有足够的认知,所以陡峭的学习曲线已然是该技术的一个难点。本文针对内镜下ULBD技术的发展历史、临床应用、应用前景,以及适应证、禁忌证和并发症等多个方面进行综述。展开更多
