Unilateral Versus Bilateral TLIF for Degenerative Lumbar Spondylolisthesis

February 25, 2019 updated by: Woo-Kie Min, Kyungpook National University Hospital

Comparison of Radiologic and Clinical Outcome of Single Level Lumbar Interbody Fusion Between Unilateral or Bilateral Facetectomy : Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

A prospective randomized controlled trial for comparison of radiologic outcomes of "single level transforaminal interbody fusion(TLIF) technique via unilateral versus bilateral facetectomy for the treatment of lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Traditionally many spine surgeons prefer single level TLIF surgery via bilateral facetectomy for increasing union rate. Our hypothesis - "Single level TLIF via unilateral facetectomy is sufficient for achieve successful fusion rate"
