March 18, 2020 updated by: BINBIN WU, Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University

Comparisons of TESSYS and "U" Route Procedures of Transforaminal Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy on Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Treatment

Different procedure of percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD) was with ventral decompression of dural sac on the lumbar spinal stenosis remains unkonwn.The traditional transforaminal endoscopic spine system (TESSYS) of PELD has been used in clnical for many years, but cannot achieve dorsal decompression. A newly developed modified TESSYS procedure, "U" route PELD combining ventral and dorsal decompression was introduced. Nevertheless, the superior between TESSYS and "U" route PELD procedures on treating LSS remains unknown. This study is desinged to recruit degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis patients who underwent TESSYS or "U" rout PELD, recruited from January 2014 to December 2017. These patients will be followed up for 2 years, and assessed the minimum dura sac cross sectional area (mDCSA) by MRI, and visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) at pre- and post-operation. The global clinical outcomes were evaluated using modified MacNab criteria postoperatively. Thus, comprehensively evaluate the safety and therapeutic effects of the two PELD procedures on LSS treatments.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 85 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Probability Sample

Study Population

The degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis patients who underwent TESSYS or "U" rout PELD, recruited from January 2014 to December 2017.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • (1) patients with the diagnosis of degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) (central stenosis with or without lateral recess stenosis) on mono or double segments, with the imaging evidence of magnetic resonance images (MRI) and computed tomography (CT); (2) patients presented low back pain, limp and sciatica, and have accepted conservative treatment more than 3 months but failed in symptoms relief; (3) patients agreed to accept TESSYS or the "U" route PELD procedure over other spinal surgeries; (4) patients had lumbar MRI imaging examines in our hospital at pre- and post-operation.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • (1) patients with spinal instability, including dynamic instability or more than Grade II spondylolisthesis; (2) patients had spinal surgical history; (3) patients with peripheral nerve disease, systematic infection, bleeding diathesis or high risk of bleeding that cannot tolerate the surgery; (4) patients with mental illness and were uncooperative; (5) patients lost to the follow up.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
T group
The degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis patients accepted the PELD with TESSYS procedure.
Other: percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy
Resection of the hypertrophied faceted joints, osteophyte formation and ligamentum flavum (LF) hypertrophy, with or without disc protrusion for degenerative spinal stenosis.
U group
The degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis patients accepted the PELD with U route procedure.
Other: percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy
Resection of the hypertrophied faceted joints, osteophyte formation and ligamentum flavum (LF) hypertrophy, with or without disc protrusion for degenerative spinal stenosis.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pain assessed by Visual Analogue Scale
Time Frame: Preoperation to postoperative 2 years.
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS 0 to 10)
Preoperation to postoperative 2 years.
Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)
Time Frame: Preoperation to postoperative 2 years.
the disability with ODI (0 to 100)
Preoperation to postoperative 2 years.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
minimum Dural sac cross sectional area (mDCSA)
Time Frame: Baseline and postoperative 1-month
the mDCSA at the most constricted lumbar spinal level of surgical intervertebral disc were measured for three times by the software of INFINITT Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) (INFINITT Healthcare Co., Seoul Korea)
Baseline and postoperative 1-month

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
