Low‐back or leg pain in patients suffering from failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) is often severe, having a major impact on functionality and quality of life. Despite conservative and surgical treatments, pain can be persistent. An alternative treatment option is epiduroscopy, a minimally invasive procedure based on mechanical adhesiolysis of epidural fibrosis. As epidural fibrosis is speculated to be a major contributor in the pathophysiologic process of FBSS, this review evaluates the effectiveness of epiduroscopy in FBSS patients.

硬膜外镜检查对腰背手术失败综合征患者的有效性：系统评价和 Meta 分析

背部手术失败综合征 (FBSS) 患者的腰痛或腿部疼痛通常很严重，对功能和生活质量产生重大影响。尽管进行了保守和手术治疗，但疼痛可能会持续存在。另一种治疗选择是硬膜外镜检查，这是一种基于硬膜外纤维化机械粘连松解的微创手术。由于推测硬膜外纤维化是 FBSS 病理生理过程的主要贡献者，本综述评估了硬膜外镜检查在 FBSS 患者中的有效性。
