Laparoscopic spinal surgery offers minimally invasive benefits. Both transperitoneal and retroperitoneal approaches are effective, with the retroperitoneal method enabling multi-level procedures and fusion devices.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Spinal Surgery
  • Laparoscopic Surgery

Background:

  • Spinal surgery is an emerging field within videolaparoscopic surgery.
  • It necessitates collaboration between spinal and laparoscopic general surgeons.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report outcomes of 76 laparoscopic spinal surgery cases.
  • To detail technical aspects and complications of both transperitoneal and retroperitoneal approaches.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of 76 laparoscopic spinal surgery cases.
  • Utilized both transperitoneal and retroperitoneal surgical approaches.
  • Detailed documentation of technical procedures and complications.

Main Results:

  • Transperitoneal approach (51 patients): 117 min average operating time, 4.4 days stay, 5 conversions.
  • Retroperitoneal approach (25 patients): 150 min operating time, 5.7 days stay, minimized conversions with a two-balloon technique.
  • Retroperitoneal approach facilitates multi-level surgery and extensive fusion.

    • Conclusions:

    • Laparoscopic spinal surgery provides minimally invasive advantages.
    • The retroperitoneal approach is advantageous for multi-level spinal fusions.
    • This technique expands surgical options for spinal procedures without limiting the spinal surgeon.
