Abstract
Study design: A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data.
Background: There have been a few studies comparing surgical outcomes between revision lumbar fusion surgery and the same primary surgery.
Object: Using the Zurich Claudication Questionnaire (ZCQ), we compared clinical outcomes of revision posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) for late deterioration after laminotomy with those of primary PLIF to examine whether surgical outcomes of revision PLIF for late deterioration after laminotomy are inferior to those of primary PLIF.
Materials and methods: Sixteen consecutive patients undergoing revision single-level PLIF for late deterioration after single-level laminotomy (R group) and 61 consecutive patients undergoing primary single-level PLIF during the same period as the R group (P group) were enrolled. Before PLIF surgery and at 2-year postoperatively, clinical outcomes were assessed using the ZCQ. Achievement rates of the minimum clinically important difference (MCID) of each domain [Symptom severity (SS) and Physical function (PF)] on the ZCQ were calculated in each group.
Results: In the R group, mean SS and PF before revision PLIF and at 2-year after surgery were 3.429 and 2.8, and 1.946 and 1.6, respectively. In the P group, mean SS and PF before primary PLIF and at postoperative 2-year were 3.438 and 2.5, and 2.194 and 1.6, respectively. Both SS and PF significantly improved at postoperative 2-year in the both groups, and SS both before and after PLIF and PF at 2-year postoperatively showed no significant differences between the 2 groups. Achievement rates of the MCID of SS and PF were 81.3% and 68.8% in the R group, and 59.0% and 59.0% in the P group, respectively. None of the MCID achievement rates of SS and PF showed significant differences between the 2 groups.
Conclusion: Clinical outcomes of revision PLIF for late deterioration after laminotomy were equivalent to those of primary PLIF assessed with the ZCQ at 2 years after PLIF surgery.

The Journal of Neurological Surgery Part A: Central European Neurosurgery (JNLS A) is a major publication from the world''s leading publisher in neurosurgery. JNLS A currently serves as the official organ of several national neurosurgery societies.
JNLS A is a peer-reviewed journal publishing original research, review articles, and technical notes covering all aspects of neurological surgery. The focus of JNLS A includes microsurgery as well as the latest minimally invasive techniques, such as stereotactic-guided surgery, endoscopy, and endovascular procedures. JNLS A covers purely neurosurgical topics.
