Lumbar interbody fusion techniques have been used for various indications since originally described 50 years ago. Technologic advances and improvements in our understanding of biomechanical principles have led to a refinement of the indications for and techniques used for the performance of lumbar interbody fusion.

Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 2012
Both anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) surgeries are performed to obtain a solid fusion to treat lumbar spondylosis. This systematic review investigated whether surgical complications, nonfusion rate, radiographic outcome, and clinical outcome of ALIF were significantly different from those of ...

Current Orthopaedic Practice, 2012
Traditional lumbar spinal fusion has been achieved through a posterior or posterolateral approach. Newer techniques have evolved to include anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF), transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF), direct lateral interbody fusion (DLIF), and axial lumbar interbody fusion (AxiaLIF).

Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2002Indication and technique of TLIF procedure are described. TLIF provides for anterior column support and posterior tension band. It is a unilateral approach to the spine, and there is no need to expose or manipulate the dura. It provides the benefits of a 360 degrees fusion without performing an anterior approach.

LAPAROSCOPIC LUMBAR INTERBODY SPINAL FUSION
Surgical Clinics of North America, 2000Laparoscopic ALIF is an evolving technique requiring the participation of a laparoscopic surgeon experienced in advanced laparoscopic techniques and knowledgeable in anterior lumbar spinal exposures. Initial enthusiasm for this technique was fostered by the development of interbody fusion devices and a method of exposing the anterior lumbar spine ...

Lumbar Percutaneous Endoscopic Interbody Fusion
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1997Since 1982, percutaneous endoscopic control has been found to be a fundamental help for selective posterior subligamentary decompression in lumbar contained disc herniations. After the first clinical experience in 1986 with percutaneous intervertebral bone grafting, the need for sufficient percutaneous preparation of the adjacent vertebral plates and ...

The Failed Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion
Spine, 1991The problems presented by unsuccessful posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) have not been addressed. The cases of 12 patients who presented with failed PLIF were reviewed. Five patients were male and seven female (age range, 24-50 years; mean age, 40 years). All patients underwent at least one PLIF; many had undergone other procedures.
