Lateral access minimally invasive spine surgery in adult spinal deformity.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) and percutaneous posterior approach for screw fixation (PPS) is the latest minimal invasive treatment for spinal deformity in adult patients (ASD). This study aims to design and highlight key points for ASD correction.

Materials and methods

We retrospectively analyzed 54 patients who had undergone OLIF with PPS for ASD from October 2019 to January 2022 (average 71.5 ± 6.2 years-old, male 4, female 50) with a mean follow-up period of 29.2 months. Clinical outcomes are expressed by values including the Oswestry disability index (ODI) and visual analogue scale (VAS) for back pain. The imagistic assessment was also performed preoperatively and at 12, and 24 months postoperatively. For OLIF51, CT- MRI fusion images were obtained b
