Abstract

Background and Objectives: Although adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery brought about the improvement of quality of life in patients, it accompanied with a high invasiveness of surgery and several complications. Specifically, mechanical complications of rod fracture, instrumentation failures, and pseudarthrosis are still unsolved issues. To better improve these problems, the oblique lateral interbody fusion at L5/S1 (OLIF51) was introduced since 2015 in my institution. The objective of this study was to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of anterior-posterior combined surgery for ASD between the use of OLIF51 versus transforaminal interbody fusion (TLIF) at L5/S1. Materials and Methods :A total of 117 ASD patients received anterior-posterior correction surgeries either use of OLIF51 (35 patients) or L5/S1 TLIF (82 patients). In both groups, L1-5 OLIF and minimally invasive posterior procedures of hybrid or circumferential MIS were employed. The sagittal and coronal spinal alignment and spino-pelvic parameters are recorded preoperatively and at follow-up. The quality of life parameters and visual analogue scale were evaluated as well as surgical complications at follow-up. Results: The average follow-up period was thirty months (13-84). The average fused segments were eight (4-12). The operation time and estimated blood loss were significantly smaller in OLIF51 that those in TLIF. The PI-LL mismatch, LLL, L5/S1 segmental lordosis, and L5 coronal tilt were significantly better in OLIF51 than TLIF. The complication rate was statistically equivalent between two groups. Conclusion: The introduction of OLIF51 for adult spine deformity surgery led to the decrease of operation time and estimated blood loss as well as the improvement of sagittal and coronal correction when compared to TLIF.
