Transfacet Oblique Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion: Technical Description and Early Results. [PDF]
Cureus, 2022 Introduction The oblique lateral lumbar interbody fusion (OLLIF) is a relatively new method of lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) that utilizes a trans-Kambin approach to the disc space. The OLLIF can be performed from T12-S1 in the majority of cases but is occasionally obstructed at the L5-S1 level by osteophytes, an overgrown facet joint and/or prominent ...

Clinical and Radiological Outcomes of Oblique Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion. [PDF]
Cureus, 2019 Oblique lateral lumbar interbody fusion (OLLIF) is a novel operation for fusions of the lumbar spine from T12-S1. In OLLIF, the disk is approached from an oblique lateral angle guided by electrophysiological monitoring and biplanar fluoroscopy; the disk space is accessed through Kambin's triangle.

Prepsoas oblique lateral lumbar interbody fusion in deformity surgery. [PDF]
Ann Transl Med, 2018 Interbody fusions are routinely used in deformity surgery to achieve both coronal and sagittal correction and attain increased fusion rates. Minimally invasive interbody techniques, including the prepsoas approach, are being utilized to decrease tissue disruption, blood loss, and patient morbidity with similar outcomes compared to traditional surgery ...
