The VariLift® Interbody Fusion System: expandable, standalone interbody fusion
Medical Devices: Evidence and Research, 2015 Intervertebral fusion cages have been in clinical use since the 1990s. Cages offer the benefits of bone graft containment, restored intervertebral and foraminal height, and a more repeatable, stable procedure compared to interbody fusion with graft material alone.

Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (PLIF) with Interbody Fusion Cages.
Orthopedics & Traumatology, 2002 This study, evaluated the clinical outcome of posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) with threaded cages only (AESCULAP H.M.A. system). We performed the operation on 13 patients (5 males and 8 females) with lumbar spinal canal stenosis, disk hernia with instability and degenerative listhesis.

Lumbar Interbody Fusion and Osteobiologics for Lumbar Fusion
Asian Spine Journal, 2022 Lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) is an excellent treatment option for a number of lumbar diseases. LIF can be performed through posterior, transforaminal, anterior, and lateral or oblique approaches. Each technique has its own pearls and pitfalls. Through LIF, segmental stabilization, neural decompression, and deformity correction can be achieved ...
