Key Points

To determine the incidence and risk factors associated with 30- and 90-day reoperations following biportal endoscopic lumbar discectomy for single-level lumbar disc herniations.
Examined incidence of reoperations at 30 and 90 days post-surgery.
Analyzed the impact of risk factors including length of stay and diabetes mellitus.
Data collected on patient outcomes following biportal endoscopic lumbar discectomy.
Incidence of 30-day reoperations was 2.1% and 90-day reoperations was 3.0%.
Diabetes mellitus was identified as a significant independent risk factor for both reoperation time points.
Prolonged length of stay (LOS) may be a consequence rather than a cause of reoperation.

Implication

Assesses risk factors for reoperations after lumbar discectomy, highlighting diabetes as significant.

Abstract

< .001 for 90-day) were significantly associated with both 30- and 90-day reoperations.ConclusionThe incidence of 30- and 90-day reoperations was 2.1% and 3.0%, respectively. Considering that prolonged LOS may be a consequence rather than a cause of reoperation, DM was the only significant independent risk factor associated with both 30- and 90-day reoperations.
