L5-S1 Laparoscopic Anterior Interbody Fusion
OBJECTIVE We evaluated our experience with laparoscopic L5-S1 anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF). METHODS This represents a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients who underwent L5-S1 laparoscopic ALIF between February 1998 and August 2003. RESULTS Twenty-eight patients underwent L5-S1 LAIF (15 males and 13 females). The mean age was 43 years (range, 26 to 67). Mean operative ti...
متن کاملL5 radiculopathy caused by L5 nerve root entrapment by an L5-S1 anterior osteophyte
BACKGROUND L5 radiculopathy is a common problem that has several causes. Entrapment of the L5 nerve root by anterior osteophytes at the L5-S1 junction is rarely reported. Posterior decompression of the L5 nerve root is commonly performed, but anterior decompression of the L5 nerve root is not a frequently performed procedure. The purpose of this case report is to describe an uncommon case of L5...
متن کاملMiniopen Oblique Lateral L5-S1 Interbody Fusion: A Report of 2 Cases
Extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF) has been widely used for minimally invasive anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF), but an approach to L5-S1 is difficult because of the iliac crest. In the current study, we present 2 cases using minimally invasive oblique lateral interbody fusion (OLIF) of L5-S1. The patients showed foraminal stenosis between L5 and S1 and severe low back and leg pain....
متن کاملL5 – S1 Segmental Kinematics After Facet Arthroplasty
BACKGROUND Facet arthroplasty is a motion restoring procedure. It is normally suggested as an alternative to rigid fixation after destabilizing decompression procedures in the posterior lumbar spine. While previous studies have reported successful results in reproducing normal spine kinematics after facet replacement at L4-5 and L3-4, there are no data on the viability of facet replacement at t...
متن کاملAxial interbody arthrodesis of the L5-S1 segment: a systematic review of the literature.
OBJECT The object of this study was to determine the fusion rate and safety profile of an axial interbody arthrodesis of the L5-S1 motion segment. METHODS A systematic search of MEDLINE was conducted for literature published between January 1, 2000, and August 17, 2014. All peer-reviewed articles related to the fusion rate of L5-S1 and the safety profile of an axial interbody arthrodesis were...
