STUDY DESIGN Retrospective review. OBJECTIVE The aim of our study was to quantify the frequency of complications associated with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhBMP-2) use in anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF). METHODS The orthopedic subset of the Medicare database (PearlDiver) was queried for this retrospective cohort study using International Statistical Classificat...
PURPOSE Bupivacaine is commonly used for the treatment of back pain and the diagnosis of its origin. Nonunion is sometimes observed after spinal fusion surgery; however, whether the nonunion causes pain is controversial. In the current study, we aimed to detect painful nonunion by injecting bupivacaine into the disc space of patients with nonunion after anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) s...
The biomechanical advantages to a load sharing anterior lumbar construct have not been debated. The development of a technique to place such a construct has gone through an evolution through PLIF, to open ALIF, to endoscopic ALIF. Recently the technique of a direct lateral mini-open approach has been popularized through the development of better retraction, improved visibility, and superior res...
BACKGROUND Lateral approach to lumbar fusion has been gaining popularity in recent years. With increasing awareness of the significance of sagittal balance restoration in spinal surgery, it is important to investigate the potential of this relatively new approach in correcting sagittal deformities in comparison to conventional approaches. The aim of this study was to evaluate sagittal contour c...
BACKGROUND The restoration of disc space height (DSH) is essential in anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF), while it is unclear whether the reduction of DSH may alter the mechanical status and adversely affect adjacent segment, and few literatures focused on the subject. METHODS Ninety five patients who had undergone ALIF for degenerative disc disease at our institution between March 2004 ...
Minimally invasive spine surgery has evolved from traditional open spine surgery, and it is an accepted, safe alternative (McAfee, et al., 2010). Traditional open operations for lumbar interbody fusion include anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF), posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF), and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF). The ALIF provides for a large interbody graft for dis...
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to determine rates of medical and surgical postoperative complications following anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) along with their associated predictors. METHODS Using the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement database, patients who underwent single-level ALIF surgery from 2...
BACKGROUND The presacral retroperitoneal approach to an axial lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) is a percutaneous, minimally invasive technique for interbody fusion at L5-S1 that has not been extensively studied, particularly with respect to long-term outcomes. OBJECTIVE The authors describe clinical and radiographic outcomes at 1-year follow-up for 50 consecutive patients who underwent the pres...
