AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The treatment for lumbar spinal stenosis has advanced through the use of minimally invasive surgery techniques. Endoscopic methods go even further, with studies showing that both uniportal and biportal endoscopic techniques have outcomes comparable to traditional approaches. However, there is limited knowledge of the step-by-step decompression process when using the unilateral biportal endoscopic (UBE). To address this, the authors introduce the five steps in the "Z" sequence, which aims to reduce surgical time and complications.

This report presents a new unilateral biportal endoscopic (UBE) technique for lumbar disc herniation without C-arm guidance. Lumbar disc herniation requires surgical intervention when conservative methods fail. Shifts towards minimally invasive percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy, including uniportal and biportal approaches, have been hindered by challenges such as steep learning curves and reliance on radiation-intensive C-arm guidance.

Background: This meta-analysis was performed to comprehensively evaluate the efficacy and safety of unilateral biportal endoscopic transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (UBE-TLIF) versus uniportal endoscopic transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (Endo-TLIF) for the treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases.
Methods: We electronically searched PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, the Wanfang Database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure to identify controlled clinical studies on the efficacy and safety of UBE-TLIF and Endo-TLIF for lumbar degenerative diseases from database establishment to December 2023. Two researchers screened the literature, extracted data, and evaluated the risk of bias of the included studies.

Background: Degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DLS) with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is a common condition resulting in substantial lower back pain and disability. Surgical intervention is recommended only when conservative treatment fails. This study compared UBE-TLIF and MIS-TLIF regarding clinical outcomes and fusion rates in patients with single-segment DLS with LSS.
