Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)From enrollment to the end of follow-up at 1 year

0-100%, the higher the score, the more severe the lumbar spine dysfunction

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)From enrollment to the follow-up at 2 weeks
VAS (visual analogue scale) for leg painFrom enrollment to the end of follow-up at 1 year

0-10, the higher the score, the more severe the pain

Operation timeImmediately after the surgery
Surgical complicationFrom enrollment to the end of follow-up at 1 year

Adverse events will be recorded to assess the safety of decompression using UBE or UE for LSS.

bony decompression range; preservation rate of the facet joint

Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scoreFrom enrollment to the end of follow-up at 1 year

0-29, the higher the score, the better the lumbar spine function

Medical comorbidityBaseline, pre-surgery
