Preoperative versus Postoperative MRI Comparisons After the MILD Procedure vs. Open Decompression for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: Multicenter Cohort Study.
The findings suggest that while MILD is tissue-sparing, it may be insufficient for achieving anatomical goals in patients with central LSS, and future percutaneous strategies should aim to combine the anatomical effectiveness of open decompression with the reduced tissue disruption characteristic of less exposure appro...
