The goal of this study is to describe and evaluate the feasibility and safety of prone single-position extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF) with posterior fixation.METHODS:Design Pilot prospective non-randomized controlled study. Seven patients who underwent prone single-position XLIF and posterior ...

目的 通过标本解剖和影像学研究,找出生殖股神经(genitofemoral nerve,GFN)在各腰椎间隙的走行位置, 结合腰椎前大血管和腰神经根的位置,得出极外侧入路腰椎椎体间融合术(extreme lateral interbody fusion,XLIF)在各腰椎间隙的安全入路范围。 方法 解剖16例成人尸体标本,暴露GFN并观察其与腰大肌的位置关系。在36例腰椎...
This minimally invasive fusion method allows the surgeon to approach the spine from the side (lateral) of the patient rather than the front (anterior) or the back (posterior). Since it avoids traversing through the abdomen or cutting and disrupting the muscles of the back, XLIF allows for a...
Nowadays, there are several spinal fusion techniques such as extreme lateral lumbar interbody fusion (XLIF), transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF), posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF), and posterolateral fusion (PLF). However, there are no studies directly comparing their capacity to ...
He suggested XLIF, a procedure which involved going in from the side of the body with less risk of nerve damage and infection. How I coped with.. spinalcordcompression; Your health On the other hand, for anterior and lateral approaches to interbody fusion such as oblique lateral interbody fus...
interbody fusionminimally invasivespinal deformityAnterior and posterior approaches for lumbar interbody fusion can be associated with a number of serious complications. Interest in minimally invasive approaches for interbody fusion has increased in recent years, with the goal of decreasing complications and ...
A total of 32 levels were treated, with the majority located at the thoracolumbar junction. Twelve of the procedures were done as part of a combined anterior/posterior surgery. Results The mean estimated blood loss was 577聽ml and the mean length of stay was 12聽days. At a mean follow-up...
The addition of anterior fusions to posterior constructs offers increased construct stability, improved fusion rates, and better lordosis restoration. The anterior column is most commonly accessed by the anterior retroperitoneal approach, in which the anterior longitudinal ligament is resected, or by the ...
We present a series of three patients, all of which had previously undergone an open posterior instrumented lumbar fusion, and now presented to our unit with adjacent level disease. Two patients were successfully managed with a minimally invasive XLIF procedure augmented by open posterior decompression...
