ПОПЕРЕКОВА ДИСКЕКТОМІЯ З ДЕКОМПРЕСІЄЮ КАНАЛУ ЗА СИСТЕМОЮ DESTANDAU ENDOSPINE

Abstract

Lumbar disc herniation is a common disease. There is severe pain in the buttock and leg, which may persist for more than 6 weeks even after conservative treatment. Currently, there are several surgical techniques for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation, ranging from laminectomy to microdiscectomy. The main advantages of endoscopic discectomy include: cosmetic appeal, minimally invasive nature, better visualization, shorter hospital stay and faster recovery. Objective. This article reviews discusses the management of patients with degenerative diseases of the lumbar spine by Destandau Endospine system. The authors shares his experience of the surgical technique and the results of percutaneous endoscopic discectomy using the Destandau system during the treatment of 51 patients with herniated disc and canal stenosis in the lumbar spine. The main advantages of the Destandau endoscopic system are a small skin incision and minimal damage to soft tissues. This is a minimally invasive intervention, which is applied through a skin incision 1.5–2 cm long. In order to ensure the accuracy and safety of the patient both before and during the operation, fluoroscopy is used. Under the control of an endoscope, the herniated intervertebral disc, free fragments of the disc are removed and the pinched nerve is released. Thus, rapid recovery is achieved during postoperative rehabilitation. Conclusions. The endoscopic system can be used to treat all types of intervertebral disc herniations and associated canal stenosis. It is a relatively safe procedure, provided proper preoperative planning and an experienced team of doctors. Most lumbar pathologies that are not related to instability can be successfully resolved with its help. The two main advantages of the Destandau endospinal system include minimally invasive surgery with minimal iatrogenic damage and excellent efficacy. In the case of its successful application, the recovery process is significantly shortened, without any restrictions for returning to everyday life.
