ABSTRACT
STUDY DESIGN:
A prospective study.OBJECTIVES:
We present a largest study until date performed over a period of 10 years assessing the perioperative complications. The primary aim of this study was to review the incidence of perioperative complications of minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MI-TLIF) in single-level lumbar degenerative diseases.METHODS:
A prospective study performed over a period of 10 years involving 560 patients who underwent single-level lumbar MI-TLIF. Perioperative clinical and radiological parameters, postoperative complications, and satisfactory outcomes in the form of Wang's criteria were evaluated. All patients were scrutinized into 5 different categories based on the descriptive classification for perioperative complications suggested by the authors.RESULTS:
The mean age was 61.8 ± 12.7 years and male to female ratio was 0.81. The overall incidence of the perioperative complication was 25.5%. In all, 19.64% patients developed single complication, 4.64% patients were with 2 complications, and 1.25% patients developed 3 complications from the described categories. A total of 16.78% patients developed early (<6 months postsurgery) and 8.75% patients developed late (>6 months postsurgery) complications.CONCLUSION:
This study showed 25.5% incidence of perioperative complications in MI-TLIF for degenerative lumbar disease over a period of 10 years with a higher incidence rate during the initial 3 years of practice. The described classification for perioperative complications is helpful to record, to evaluate and to understand the etiology based on its duration of occurrence in the perioperative period. MI-TLIF is an effective procedure with substantial clinical benefits in the form of excellent to good clinical-radiological outcomes.
