摘要
Study design Retrospective observational study. Objective This study examined associated factors for the improvement in spinal imbalance following decompression surgery without fusion. Summary of background data Several reports have suggested that decompression surgery without fusion may have a beneficial effect on sagittal balance in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) through their postoperative course. However, few reports have examined the association between an improvement in sagittal imbalance and spinal sarcopenia. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 92 patients with LSS and a preoperative sagittal vertical axis (SVA) ≥40 mm who underwent decompression surgery without fusion at a single institution between April 2017 and October 2018. Patients' background and radiograph parameters and the status of spinal sarcopenia, defined using the relative cross-sectional area (rCSA) of the paravertebral muscle (PVM) and psoas muscle at the L4 caudal endplate level, were assessed. We divided the patients into two groups: those with a postoperative SVA Results A total of 29 (31.5%) patients obtained an improved sagittal imbalance after decompression surgery. The rCSA-PVM in the balanced group was significantly higher than that in the imbalanced group (p = 0.042). The preoperative pelvic incidence (PI)-lumbar lordosis (LL) mismatch (p = 0.048) and the proportion with compression vertebral fracture (p = 0.028) in the balanced group were significantly lower than those in the imbalanced group. A multivariate logistic regression analysis identified PI-LL ≤10° and rCSA-PVM ≥2.5 as significant associated factor for the improvement in spinal imbalance following decompression surgery. Conclusions A larger volume of paravertebral muscles and a lower PI-LL were associated with an improvement in sagittal balance in patients with LSS who underwent decompression surgery.Level of Evidence: 3.
