Abstract

To evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of minimally invasive oblique lumbar interbody debridement and fusion for the treatment of conservatively ineffective lumbar spondylodiscitis. This is a retrospective study. Between December 2016 and November 2017, a total of 14 consecutive patients (eight males and six females, with an average age of 49.1 years, range from 42 to 74 years) with single-level lumbar spondylodiscitis were included in the study. The inclusion criteria include single-level spondylodiscitis without spinal deformity or epidural abscess, ineffective conservative treatment (continuously aggravated clinical symptoms and uncontrollable infective symptoms treated with antibiotics for more than 6 weeks), minimally invasive oblique lumbar interbody fusion surgery (Mis-OLIF) and iliac graft for the treatment of lumbar spondylodiscitis, and postoperative follow-up >12 months. Each patient was treated Mis-OLIF. Clinical outcomes including demographic characteristics, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), visual analog scale (VAS), the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), American Spinal Injury Association neurological classification, and lordotic angle were analyzed. The infectious levels included L...Continue Reading
