Minimum Seven-Year Follow-Up Outcomes of Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy for Lumbar Degenerative Disease

Abstract

Our study showed that PELD using the transforaminal approach can provide favorable results after a long-term follow-up period. POD is a common complication at initial prognosis. Limited discectomy can preserve the disc height well and minimize the risk of residual back pain.
