Abstract EN
The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk factors between ipsilateral and contralateral reherniation and to compare the effectiveness of miniopen transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) with unilateral fixation for each group.
From November 2007 to December 2014, clinical and radiographic data of each group (ipsilateral or contralateral reherniation) were collected and compared.
Functional assessment (Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score and Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA)) and radiographic evaluation (fusion status, disc height, lumbar lordosis (LL), and functional spine unit (FSU) angle) were applied to compare surgical effect for each group preoperatively and at final followup.
MacNab questionnaire was applied to further evaluate the satisfactory rate after the discectomy and fusion.
No difference except pain-free interval was found between ipsilateral and contralateral groups.
There was a significant difference in operative time between two groups.
No differences were found in clinical and radiographic data for assessment of surgical effect between two groups.
The satisfactory rate was decreasing in both groups with time passing after discectomy.
Difference in pain-free interval may be a distinction for ipsilateral and contralateral reherniation.
Miniopen TLIF with unilateral pedicle screw fixation can be a recommendable way for single level reherniation regardless of ipsilateral or contralateral reherniation.
