Microscope-assisted percutaneous microchannel treatment of lumbar ligamentum flavum cyst: A case report
Lumbar ligament cyst is a rare spinal disease with many case reports. At present, its pathogenesis is not clear, and the current consensus is that it is mostly related to spinal degenerative diseases. The main treatment for lumbar ligamentum flavum cyst is surgery. Microscope-assisted percutaneous microchannel surgical resection of lumbar ligamentum flavum cyst is a safe and effective method that can protect the normal anatomical structure of the lumbar spine to the maximum extent, without destroying the stability of the spine, while reducing surgical trauma.
