Multicenter Study
Outcomes Following Direct versus Indirect Decompression Techniques for Lumbar Spondylolisthesis: A Propensity-Matched Analysis.
Retrospective review. ⋯ Our study suggests that both DD and ID for the treatment of lumbar spondylolisthesis result in similar clinical outcomes, with the exception that those treated with ID experienced a lower reduction in back and leg pain at 3 months and a higher 3-month reoperation rate. This data can provide surgeons with additional information when counseling patients on the pros and cons of ID versus DD surgery.
