The aim of this study was to directly compare the clinical outcomes of posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) and minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) in three-level lumbar spinal stenosis. This retrospective study involved a total of 60 patients with three-level degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis who underwent MIS-TLIF or PLIF from January 2010 to February 2012. Back and leg visual analog scale (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), and Short Form-36 (SF-36) scale were used to assess the pain, disability, and health status before surgery and postoperatively. In addition, the operating time, estimated blood loss, and hospital stay were also recorded. There were no significant differences in back VAS, leg VAS, ODI, SF-36, fusion condition, and complications at 12-month follow-up between the two groups (P>0.05). However, significantly less blood loss and shorter hospital stay were observed in MIS-TLIF group (P<0.05). Moreover, patients undergoing MIS-TLIF had significantly lower back VAS than those in PLIF group at 6-month follow-up (P<0.05). Compared with PLIF, MIS-TLIF might be a prior option because of noninferior efficacy as well as merits of less blood loss and quicker recovery in treating three-level lumbar spinal stenosis.

Lumbar spinal stenosis dengan instabilitas, salah satu pilihan pengobatannya dengan laminektomi dekompresi, stabilisasi posterior dan PLIF (Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion). Derajat fusi dapat ditentukan dengan pemeriksaan CT-scan post operatif. Sedangkan untuk menilai disabilitas dan skor fungsional pada pasien LSS menggunakan skor Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian analisis observasional pada 18 pasien LSS yang telah dilakukan operasi instrumentasi PLIF. Pasien diminta mengisi kuesioner ODI dan dilakukan evaluasi CT Scan, kemudian dilakukan uji korelasi data yang didapat. Penelitian ini menunjukkan adanya korelasi yang signifikan antara derajat fusi dengan ODI. Koefisien korelasi antara derajat fusi dengan ODI didapatkan 0,904 dengan nilai signifikansi 0,00 (p<0,05). Derajat fusi post operasi dari gambaran CT Scan memiliki korelasi yang signifikan terhadap derajat disabilitas menggunakan skor ODI.Kata Kunci: Lumbar spinal stenosis, Fusion rate, PLIF, ODI Lumbar spinal stenosis with instability one of the treatment options is decompression laminectomy, posterior stabilization and PLIF (Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion). The degree of fusion can be determined by CT scan post -operatively. To assess disability and functional scores in LSS patients can use the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). This study was an observational analysis study in 18 LSS patients who had PLIF instrumentation surgery. Patients were asked to fill in the ODI questionnaire and were evaluated for CT Scan, then the correlation data were obtained. This study shows a significant correlation between the degree of fusion and ODI. The correlation coefficient between the degree of fusion and ODI is 0.904 with a significance value of 0.00 (p <0.05). The degree of postoperative fusion of CT scans has a significant correlation to the degree of disability using the ODI score.Keywords: Lumbar spinal stenosis, Fusion rate, PLIF, ODI

Lumbar spinal stenosis is often the result of advanced degeneration of motion segments of the lumbar spine. Loss of disc height, facet displacement and hypertrophy, spondylosis, and spondylolisthesis, as well as buckling of the ligamentum flavum and annulus fibrosus, all contribute to impingement on the spinal canal and intervertebral foramen in lumbar stenosis. There is a subgroup of patients with spinal stenosis in whom the spine is unstable preoperatively or becomes destabilized following decompression who would benefit from an initial fusion procedure. Posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) addresses several aspects of the multifactorial pathophysiology responsible for spinal stenosis and may arrest the degenerative changes at the fused level. Fusion, in particular PLIF, should be considered in complex cases of lumbar spinal stenosis, most notably in patients with postlaminectomy stenosis or stenosis associated with spondylolisthesis.

Introduction Lumbar spinal stenosis is often the result of advanced degeneration of motion segments of the lumbar spine. The incidence of this case is 3.57% (3570 per 100,000) population in Southeast Asia. The main symptoms are low back pain, numbness, and weakness in the lower extremity that occur and intensify on walking caused by the load of the body weight on the spine. Loss of disc height, facet displacement and hypertrophy, spondylosis, and spondylolisthesis , all contribute to impact the spinal canal and intervertebral foramen in lumbar stenosis . There is a subgroup of patients with spinal stenosis in whom the spine is unstable preoperatively or become destabilized following decompression who would benefit from fusion procedure. Objective Surgical treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis by posterior lumbar interbody fusion is indicated for patients with symptoms of low back pain and lower limb radicular pain, that are unsuccessful treated with medicines and /or patients with persisting or worsening neurological deficit.However, this procedure may lead to possible complications. This case report study was conducted to show how our hospital handling spinal stenosis case. Case A 67-year-old woman presented with low back pain that has occured for two years, and had been worsening for the past 3 months. She described the pain as an intermitten ache down on her leg, the pain was severe and worsened when the patient is standing, sitting, or walking for a long time , The pain severity was measured by visual analog score (vas), graded between 7/10 to 9/10. She also complained numbness from the bilateral gluteal region to the lateral side of lower extremities, when she feel too tired. On the physical examination, She was found to have limited range of motion for flexion and extension, on the lumbar spine, due to pain. The motoric strength of both lower limbs were decreased, so did the sensory function. The Radiological examination showed a severe stenosis at lumbar spinal bone region on L4-L5 area. After the examination, the patient agreed to undergo the suggested operative procedure and gare the consent at the hospital.
