Brief Summary

Degenerative lumbar pathologies are characterised by functional impairment and the occurrence of severe chronic pain and disability Arthrodesis of the lumbar spine is a common surgery for the treatment of degenerative lumbar pathologies. It is commonly performed during a hospital stay that can vary from 3 to 7 days. The development of mini-invasive techniques and the development of the Improved Rehabilitation after Surgery programmes, has considerably reduced the hospital stay of the patients. It is possible that in the future mini-invasive lumbar arthrodesis will be performed on an ambulatory as a standard procedure, but its safety, efficacy and patient satisfaction must be proven and validated.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To evaluate the feasibility of mini-invasive lumbar arthrodesis on an ambulatory in patients with degenerative lumbar disease who have failed with conventional treatment.

    Percentage of patients with same-day discharge

    within 24 hours after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (41)

  • Evaluate the safety of ambulatory lumbar arthrodesis

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Evaluate early morbidity

    within 1st week

  • Evaluate the short-term morbidity

    within 1st month

  • Evaluate the mid-term morbidity

    within 1st year

  • Evaluate the patients' quality of life

    at 1-month visit

  • +36 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

mini-invasive lumbar arthrodesis

EXPERIMENTAL

The patient will be admitted to the hospital on the morning of the surgery, operated on the same morning by either the posterior or anterior mini-invasive approach. The choice of the approach depends on the specificity of the pathology leading to the arthrodesis procedure and the surgeon's experience. It is the surgeon who decides this in agreement with the patient. The patient will be discharged in the evening after agreement of the anaesthetist and the surgeon.

Procedure: mini-invasive lumbar arthrodesis

Interventions

* The mini-invasive posterior approach is performed using a trans-muscular Wiltse approach. Pedicle screws, neurological decompression and intersomatic cage placement are performed. * The mini-invasive anterior approach is performed via a left retroperitoneal pararectal approach. After complete discectomy, an intersomatic cage stabilised by a screwed plate will be placed.
