OBJECTIVE: To investigate the techniques and indications of treatment of @entity179 . METHODS: The clinical data of 45 @entity179 @entity1 , 18 males and 27 females, aged 41 - 77, all suffering from severe @entity1643 , were analyzed. Twenty of them underwent posterior lumbar interbody fusion with pedicle screws combined with correction of @entity1635 . Sixteen @entity1 underwent @entity308 of vertebral canal and pure internal fixation and fusion of pedicle. Eight @entity1 underwent pure @entity308 , such as laminectomy or incision of intervertebral foramen. The corrective effects of @entity1635 , condition of intervertebral fusion, and complications were observed. RESULTS: All operations were performed successfully and all the @entity1 made a remarkable recovery. During the 13 months' follow-up, 88% of the @entity1 showed remarkable relief from @entity158 and @entity613 and improved life quality. No loss in correction angle and height of disc space was found among the @entity1 who had undergone internal fixation and interbody fusion. The residual symptom of @entity1643 was more manifest in the @entity1 who had not undergone internal fixation than in those who had. CONCLUSION: Posterior lumbar interbody fusion with pedicle screws is safe and effective in the treatment of severe @entity179 .
