文摘目的:探讨骨科机器人辅助(Robot-assisted,RA)脊柱内镜下单侧双通道腰椎椎间融合术(unilateral biportal endoscopic lumbar interbody fusion,UBE-LIF)在单节段腰椎管狭窄症(lumbar spinal stenosis,LSS)治疗中的临床疗效。方法:回顾性分析佛山市中医院脊柱科于2023年8月~2024年2月收治的90例LSS患者临床资料,分为观察组(42例,采用RA-UBE-LIF)与对照组(48例,UBE-LIF)。收集患者年龄、性别、病程及病变节段等基本人口学与临床资料;比较两组患者透视次数、手术时间、术中出血量、术后引流量、住院时间、置钉准确率(Gertzbein标准)以及并发症发生情况;采用疼痛视觉模拟评分(visual analogue score,VAS)和Oswestry功能障碍指数(Oswestry disability index,ODI)量化评估患者术前及术后1周、3个月和6个月的腰痛、腿痛改善程度和腰椎功能恢复情况。结果:所有患者均顺利完成手术并接受了随访,随访时间范围为6~12个月。观察组的透视次数(4.40±0.83 vs 9.92±1.62)、术中出血量(90.76±13.27mL vs 121.21±16.75mL)、术后引流量(75.93±14.43mL vs 93.02±17.04mL)、住院时间(4.43±1.52d vs 7.19±1.79d)均小于对照组(P<0.05),两组手术时间(118.24±8.91min vs 120.67±10.43min)比较无显著性差异(P>0.05)。观察组RA经皮置钉准确率为97.62%,与对照组(89.58%)相比有显著性差异(P<0.05)。观察组的并发症发生率为2.38%,与对照组(6.25%)相比无显著性差异(P>0.05)。两组患者术后各时间点的腰痛、腿痛VAS评分与ODI均较前一时间点显著下降(P<0.05);术前两组无显著差异(P>0.05),术后各时间点(1周、3个月、6个月)观察组VAS评分与ODI改善均优于对照组(P<0.05)。结论:RA-UBE-LIF治疗LSS手术精准安全、疗效满意。
