    Objective: To systematize the evidence related to the effectiveness of decompression techniques compared to conventional laminectomy in post-operative patients with lumbar stenosis. Materials and Methods: The study type is quantitative, with a systematic review design. Data was obtained from the following databases: PubMed, Scielo, Epistemonikos, Google Scholar, and Cochrane. Of the 10 articles reviewed, 40% (n=4/10) are systematic reviews, 30% (n=3/10) are randomized controlled trials, 20% (n=2/10) are randomized prospective comparative studies, and 10% (n=1/10) are case-control studies. According to the quality of the evidence. Results: The reviewed studies found that 60% (n=6/10) indicate that decompression techniques are more effective compared to conventional laminectomy in post-operative lumbar stenosis patients, while the other 40% (n=4/10) indicate that they are not more effective. Conclusion: The conclusion drawn from the 10 scientific articles reviewed is that decompression techniques are more effective than conventional laminectomy in post-operative lumbar stenosis patients.
