Comparison of Outcomes between Indirect Decompression of Oblique Lumbar Interbody Fusion and MIS-TLIF in One Single-level Lumbar Spondylosis: a case control study
Abstract:Background
Minimal invasive spinal fusion has become popular in the last decade. Oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) is a relatively new surgical technique and could avoid back muscle stripping and posterior complex destruction as in minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF).

Results
A total of 21 patients that underwent OLIF… Show more
