Gibt es segmentabhängige Unterschiede bei lumbalen Spondylodesen? – Vergleich der Segmente L IV/V und L V/S I bei der transforaminalen lumbalen interkorporellen Fusion (TLIF)

Abstract

In patients with contraction osteochondrosis in segment L V/S I, spondylodesis in segment L V/S I is - for anatomical reasons - more likely to be linked to reversible nerve irritations than with segment L IV/V. In some cases, conversion from TLIF on ALIF is necessary. In patients with degenerative spine disease, TLIF in segments L IV/V and L V/S I is absolutely accepted as a safe and up-to-date procedure.
