Background Oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) is a minimally invasive surgical technique used for lumbar spine stabilisation, known for reducing the morbidity associated with traditional posterior lumbar fusion techniques. iFactor, a synthetic bone graft composed of P‐15 osteogenic cell‐binding peptide and anorganic bone mineral (ABM), is often ...

Extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF®): how I do it
First introduced by Pimenta et al. in 2001, the extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF®) approach is a safe and effective alternative to anterior or posterior approaches to lumbar fusion, avoiding the large anterior vessels and posterior structures ...

Adjacent Vertebral BMD Decline After Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion
To investigate the changes in the volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) of the adjacent vertebral cancellous bone and endplate at the fusion level in patients undergoing lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF). The vBMD of the cancellous bone and endplates adjacent to the vertebral body, cephalad or caudal to the fused level, decreased after LLIF. vBMD

The use of IFDs to reconstruct the anterior and middle column defects following PVCR demonstrated a high incidence of poor matching (40.2%). The Cobb angle of segmental kyphosis, the angle between osteotomy surfaces, and the height of IFDs are identified as independent risk factors for poor matching of IFDs after PVCR.

Nitinol in Orthopedic Applications: Clinical Insights, Performance Challenges, and Future Directions
ABSTRACT The increasing prevalence of spinal disorders has spurred continuous innovation in implant design and biomaterials. Among emerging options, Nitinol has gained significant interest due to its unique combination of shape memory effect, superelasticity, and mechanical compatibility with bone tissue.
