Patients were matched based on age, sex, and surgical level to improve the comparison. The primary outcomes were assessed using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), and modified MacNab criteria. The secondary outcomes including postoperative analgesic consumption, operation time, length of stay, surgical complications, postoperative recurrence, and anesthesia-related adverse events.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Both PEID and AUSS groups demonstrated significant postoperative improvements in VAS and ODI (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.05).
