    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Orthopedic Surgery

    Background:

    • Nerve structure compression can lead to significant patient morbidity.
    • Lateral stenosis is a common condition requiring surgical intervention.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of novel impaction-based instruments for nerve decompression.
    • To assess the utility of these instruments in treating lateral stenosis.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized new surgical instruments based on the principle of impaction (inward driving of the outer surface).
    • Applied instruments in over 300 surgical cases for nerve decompression.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved successful outcomes in well over 300 cases.
    • Instruments demonstrated significant utility and indispensability in managing lateral stenosis.
