Neurosurg Rev . 2024 Jun; 47(1):260. PMID: 38844595
Introduction: The prone transpsoas technique (PTP) is a modification of the traditional lateral lumbar interbody fusion approach, which was first published in the literature in 2020. The technique provides several...

Soliman M, Diaz-Aguilar L, Kuo C, Aguirre A, Khan A, San Miguel-Ruiz J, et al.
Neurosurgery . 2023 Jun; 93(5):1106-1111. PMID: 37272706
Background And Objectives: The prone transpsoas (PTP) approach for lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) is a novel technique for degenerative lumbar spine disease. However, there is a paucity of information...

Amaral R, Moriguchi R, Pokorny G, Arnoni D, Barreira I, Marcelino F, et al.
Arch Orthop Trauma Surg . 2023 Mar; 143(9):5485-5490. PMID: 36932208
Introduction: Lumbar interbody fusion is a standard method to treat certain degenerative conditions that are refractory to conservative treatments. LLIF reduces posterior muscle damage, can relieve neurological symptoms through indirect...
