Comprehensive workflow with optical navigation in minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion: a retrospective study

Abstract Background Degenerative lumbar diseases (LDD) are increasingly common among the elderly due to extended life expectancy. Minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) is a preferred surgical technique for LDD, offering advantages over traditional methods, although it...
