DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2020-037096
Abstract: Introduction Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is a common lumbar degenerative disease in the elderly, usually requiring surgery if conservative treatment fails. Microscopic decompressive laminectomy (MDL) and percutaneous endoscopic decompressive laminectomy (PEDL) have been widely used… read more here.

DOI: 10.1166/jbn.2022.3290
Abstract: Laminectomy can cause the dura mater to adhere to the surrounding scar tissue, leading to soft spinal stenosis after surgery. Although artificial laminae are considered ideal substitutes, they present challenges such as insecure fixation and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0283924
Abstract: Lumbar spinal stenosis is a common spinal degenerative condition. Minimally invasive interlaminar full-endoscopic decompressive laminectomy provides greater patient satisfaction and faster recovery than open decompressive laminectomy. The aim of our randomized controlled trial will be… read more here.
