Back surgery showdown: which technique brings more relief?

NCT ID NCT07542054

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares two common back surgeries for people with lumbar spinal stenosis (a narrowing of the spine that presses on nerves). One surgery only removes the pressing bone and tissue, while the other also adds metal screws and rods to stabilize the spine. Researchers will follow 56 adults over 18 months to see which approach provides better pain relief and daily function.
