Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

Several microsurgical techniques are available for the decompression of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). More recently, a spinous process-splitting laminectomy (SPSL) technique was introduced, with the premise of diminishing paraspinal muscle damage. This study aims to compare the neurologic and functional outcomes, as well as the differences in early postoperative pain and analgesic use during hospitalization after conventional decompression (CD) versus SPSL surgery for LSS.
