Methodology of economic evaluations in spine surgery: a systematic review and qualitative assessment

Ruud Droeghaag et al.

Summary: This systematic review aims to evaluate the methodology and quality of clinical cost-effectiveness studies in spine surgery. The study found that there is a lack of comparability among existing economic evaluations in spine surgery, highlighting the need for uniformity in conducting and reporting such evaluations.

Cost-effectiveness of anterior surgical decompression surgery for cervical degenerative disk disease: a systematic review of economic evaluations

V. N. E. Schuermans et al.

Summary: There is no clear consensus on the most cost-effective anterior surgical technique for treating cervical degenerative disk disease (CDDD). However, the majority of studies suggest that anterior cervical discectomy with arthroplasty (ACDA) is more cost-effective compared to anterior cervical discectomy with fusion (ACDF). However, due to heterogeneity in costs, charges, and study methods, solid conclusions cannot be drawn. High-quality cost-effectiveness research and uniformity in the conduct, design, and reporting of economic evaluations are needed in the treatment of CDDD.

Cost-effectiveness of open transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (OTLIF) versus minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MITLIF): a systematic review and meta-analysis

Ruud Droeghaag et al.

Summary: This study conducted a systematic literature review and meta-analysis to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of OTLIF compared to MITLIF in patients with lumbar spondylolisthesis or degenerative disease. The results indicated that MITLIF is more cost-effective than OTLIF. Considering the rising costs of instrumented spine surgery, cost-effectiveness could play a crucial role in surgical decision-making.

Comparison of (Partial) economic evaluations of transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) versus Posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) in adults with lumbar spondylolisthesis: A systematic review

Inge J. M. H. Caelers et al.

Summary: The demand for spinal fusion surgery has increased over the years. TLIF and PLIF are two widely used techniques for spinal fusion, with TLIF potentially being more cost-effective due to lower costs and similar effectiveness in back and leg pain relief. However, the quality of studies comparing these techniques is generally low and more high-quality comparative studies are needed to determine the preferable technique.

Evidence-based recommendations for economic evaluations in spine surgery: study protocol for a Delphi consensus

Ruud Droeghaag et al.

Summary: This study aims to improve the quality and comparability of economic evaluations in spine surgery through expert-based recommendations obtained via a modified Delphi study. Steps include systematic review, expert group formation, drafting and validation of statements, and validation by a Delphi-panel to formulate final recommendations.
