Percutaneous pedicle screw placement with a mini-open decompression versus open surgery in the treatment of lumbar spondylolisthesis: one-year results of a randomised controlled trial
This study detected no difference in outcome between mini-open compared to open surgery in patients with spondylolisthesis. The hypothetical advantage of reduced short-term low back pain, less blood loss and better clinical outcome could not be confirmed.
