35(1):100-104.
PMID: 33990079
Objective: Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) techniques, particularly lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF), have become increasingly popular for adult spinal deformity (ASD) correction. Much discussion has been had regarding theoretical and...

15(3):440-448.
PMID: 33963028
Background: Lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) affords a wide operative corridor to allow for a large interbody cage implantation for segmental reconstruction. There is a paucity of data describing segmental...

J Neurosurg Spine
. 2021 Apr;
35(1):80-90.
PMID: 33930860
Objective: An advantage of lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) surgery is the indirect decompression of the neural elements that occurs because of the resulting disc height restoration, spinal realignment, and...

World Neurosurg
. 2021 Jan;
148:e192-e196.
PMID: 33385599
Objective: Managing retraction of the lumbar plexus is critical to safely perform lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) via the transpsoas approach. Occasionally, a transitional psoas is encountered at L4/5 and...

Wewel J, OToole J
Neurooncol Pract
. 2020 Dec;
7(Suppl 1):i5-i9.
PMID: 33299568
The spine is a frequent location for metastatic disease. As local control of primary tumor pathology continues to improve, survival rates improve and, by extension, the opportunity for metastasis increases....

J Craniovertebr Junction Spine
. 2020 Sep;
11(2):148-151.
PMID: 32905059
Thoracic dumbbell tumors are relatively uncommon neoplasms that arise from the neurogenic elements. Surgical resection can be challenging as the tumor involves both the spinal canal and thoracic cavity. Historically,...

Oper Neurosurg (Hagerstown)
. 2020 Jul;
19(6):E605.
PMID: 32678908
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) approaches for the correction of adult spinal deformity have gained popularity in the past decade. MIS approaches can result in decreased hospitalization times and decreased morbidity....

World Neurosurg
. 2020 Jan;
137:e208-e212.
PMID: 31996333
Background: All interbody fusions are associated with a risk of subsidence. In the case of lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF), an interbody device that spans the apophyseal rings reduces subsidence....
