Comparison of Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion with Direct Lumbar Interbody Fusion: Clinical and Radiological Results
OBJECTIVE The use of direct lumbar interbody fusion (DLIF) has gradually increased; however, no studies have directly compared DLIF and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF). We compared DLIF and TLIF on the basis of clinical and radiological outcomes. METHODS A retrospective review was performed on the medical records and radiographs of 98 and 81 patients who underwent TLIF and DLIF ...
متن کاملTLIF--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 کاملPreliminary results on feasibility of outpatient instrumented transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion.
STUDY DESIGN A retrospective chart review study was performed. OBJECTIVE The primary objective of this study was to analyze our preliminary results to examine whether it is safe and effective to perform instrumented lumbar interbody fusions on an outpatient basis by comparing 2 groups of patients who were discharged the same day versus those who stayed overnight. The secondary objective was t...
