Learning Curve and Clinical Outcomes of Ultrasonic Osteotome-based En Bloc Laminectomy for Thoracic Ossification of the Ligamentum Flavum

Objective:
Despite rapid advances in minimally invasive surgery, en bloc laminectomy remains the most common surgical approach for treating thoracic ossification of the ligamentum flavum (TOLF). However, the learning curve of this
risky operation is rarely reported. Therefore, we aimed to describe and analyze the learning curve of ultrasonic
osteotome-based en bloc laminectomy for TOLF.
