Introduction: Spondylolisthesis is defined as the forward displacement of a vertebra in relation to below it. It most common lower back.Aim: The aim this study analyze Functional outcome following Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion Spondylolisthesis. Methods: A total 20 patients with spondylolistheis was treated from November 2021 October 2022.Results: In Our 11 had lesion at L4-L5 and 9 L5...

This report is a rare case of a lumbar interbody fusion cage dislocation in the procedure of Minimal Invasive Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion surgery (MI-TLIF) for spondylolisthesis of segment L5/S1. A 65-year-old lady underwent MI-TLIF surgery, and the interbody fusion cage was dislocated forward into retroperitoneal space. The cage was extraction with lateral approach and replaced by l...

INTRODUCTION We hypothesized that an Integrated Lumbar Interbody Fusion Device (PILLAR SA, Orthofix, Lewisville, TX) will function biomechanically similar to a traditional anterior interbody spacer (PILLAR AL, Orthofix, Lewisville, TX) plus posterior instrumentation (FIREBIRD, Orthofix, Lewisville, TX). Purpose of this study was to determine if an Integrated Interbody Fusion Device (PILLAR SA) ...

In a prospective observational study we compared the two-year outcome of lumbar fusion by a simple technique using translaminar screws (n = 57) with a more extensive method using transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion and pedicular screw fixation (n = 63) in consecutive patients with degenerative disease of the lumbar spine. Outcome was assessed using the validated multidimensional Core Outcome...

A prospective, randomized clinical study was performed to determine whether unilateral pedicle screw fixation was comparable with bilateral fixation in 1- or 2-segment lumbar interbody fusion. One hundred eight patients with lumbar degenerative diseases were randomly assigned to the unilateral (n=56) or bilateral (n=52) pedicle screw fixation group. Interbody fusion was performed in 1 or 2 leve...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Instrumented and non-instrumented methods of fusion have been compared in several studies, but the results are often inconsistent and conflicting. We compared the 2-year results of 3 methods of lumbar fusion when used in degenerative disc disease (DDD), using the Swedish Spine Register (SWESPINE). METHODS All patients registered in SWESPINE for surgical treatment of DDD...

BACKGROUND Loss of lumbar lordosis has been reported after lumbar interbody fusion surgery and may portend poor clinical and radiographic outcome. The objective of this research was to measure changes in segmental and global lumbar lordosis in patients treated with presacral axial L4-S1 interbody fusion and posterior instrumentation and to determine if these changes influenced patient outcomes....

BACKGROUND Magnesium (Mg) released from Mg-based implants degradation is believed to be effective in improving osteogenesis, however, studies focusing on Mg-based interbody cages are limited and fusion success was never reported. As excessive Mg accumulation can inhibit new bone formation, this study is designed to explain the possible reasons for the fusion failure of Mg-based cages by analyzi...

Lumbar interbody fusion from a posterior approach affords the advantage of adding interbody fusion to a posterolateral fusion while avoiding the added morbidity of an anterior approach to the spine. Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) provides anterior column support through a single posterolateral approach to the disc space with minimal neural retraction and disruption of only one fa...
