Lumbar Plexopathy and Exploration Following an Oblique Lumbar Interbody Fusion (OLIF) iFactor‐Associated Complication: A Case Report

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
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 ...

The Impact of the Ovine Annular Lesion Model on IVD Pathobiology and Utility of the Ovine Spinal Model in Patho‐Anatomical Studies: A Historical Perspective

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
The ovine annular rim‐lesion model of intervertebral disc degeneration of Osti and colleagues (1990) has evolved into a sophisticated mechanical destabilization large animal model of intervertebral disc degeneration over its 35 year history offering diverse musculoskeletal multi‐disciplinary investigations into the multifunctional complexity of this ...

Extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF®): how I do it

open access: yes, 2015
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

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 11, Page 3151-3158, November 2025.
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

Comparison of the Outcomes of Endoscopic Posterolateral Interbody Fusion and Lateral Interbody Fusion in the Treatment of Lumbar Degenerative Disease: A Systematic Review and Network Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery
Objective Although endoscopic technologies have been increasingly applied in lumbar fusion surgery in recent years, the advantages and disadvantages of endoscopic posterolateral fusion compared with lateral fusion remain unclear.

Evaluation of Indirect Decompression Effect After Extreme Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Using Three‐Dimensional Volumetric Measurements—A Retrospective Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 9, Page 2558-2569, September 2025.
The developed method demonstrates accuracy, reproducibility, and applicability for analyzing XLIF, with significant potential for application in other spinal surgical methods. The volumetric changes exhibit predictive capability regarding the extent of indirect spinal canal decompression.

Risk Factors for Poor Matching of Intervertebral Fusion Devices After Posterior Vertebral Column Resection in Patients With Kyphosis or Kyphoscoliosis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 9, Page 2579-2587, September 2025.
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

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 113, Issue 7, July 2025.
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.

Biomechanical evaluation of interbody fixation with secondary augmentation: lateral lumbar interbody fusion versus posterior lumbar interbody fusion

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Many approaches to the lumbar spine have been developed for interbody fusion. The biomechanical profile of each interbody fusion device is determined by the anatomical approach and the type of supplemental internal fixation.
