TLIF--transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion.
Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) is a relatively new technique of lumbar arthrodesis via posterior transforaminal approach to the disc, indicated mainly in cases of degenerative disc disease, low grade spondylolisthesis and reoperation for disc herniation, specially when there is indication for interbody fusion and posterior decompression. The main advantage of TLIF is that it allo...
متن کاملMinimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion
Minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS TLIF) is performed via tubular dilators thereby preserving the integrity of the paraspinal musculature. The decreased soft tissue disruption in the MIS technique has been associated with significantly decreased blood loss, shorter length of hospitalization, and an expedited return to work while maintaining comparable arthrodesis rat...
متن کاملModified Mini-open Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective case series. OBJECTIVE To describe a modified technique for mini-open transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) that improves visualization for decompression, fusion, and freehand pedicle screw insertion. Accuracy of freehand pedicle screw placement with this technique was assessed. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Mini-open TLIF is a minimally invasive technique th...
متن کاملTwo-year outcomes of transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion.
PURPOSE To evaluate the outcomes, fusion rates, complications, and adjacent segment degeneration associated with transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF). METHODS 32 men and 80 women aged 15 to 85 (mean, 57) years underwent 141 fusions (84 one-level, 27 2-level, and one 3-level) and were followed up for 24 to 76 (mean, 33) months. 92% of the patients had degenerative lumbar disease, 15 o...
متن کاملAortic Injury during Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion
Aortic injury during transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) is a rare but severe complication. We experienced aortic injury during TLIF at L3-4 with a 59-year-old woman diagnosed with an adjacent segment disease at L3-4. Severe bleeding occurred during disc space expansion, and the blood pressure dropped to 60/40 mmHg. The patient's vital sign stabilized after compression with gauze and ...
