Zusammenfassung

Hintergrund

Die lumbale Spondylodese stellt ein etabliertes Operationsverfahren in der Wirbelsäulenchirurgie dar. Die Indikationen sind alle Arten von Instabilitäten des betroffenen Bewegungssegmentes. Ziel der Operation ist eine biomechanisch dauerhafte Fusion der Wirbel, welche durch verschiedene Zugangswege, Implantate und Fusionsmaterialen erreicht werden kann.

Techniken

Hauptsächlich verwendete Techniken sind die posteriore lumbale Fusion (PLF), die posteriore lumbale interkorporelle Fusion (PLIF), die transforaminale lumbale interkoporelle Fusion (TLIF), die anteriore lumbale interkorporelle Fusion (ALIF), die oblique lumbale interkorporelle Fusion (OLIF) und die extrem laterale interkorporelle Fusion (XLIF). Die Techniken sowie deren Indikationen, Komplikationen und Ergebnisse werden in dieser Übersicht beschrieben.

Abstract

Background

Lumbar spinal fusion is an established surgical technique in spine surgery. The goal of spinal fusion is a biomechanically lasting interbody union, which can be accomplished through different surgical approaches, implants and grafts.

Techniques

The mainly surgical techniques used are: posterior lumbar fusion (PLF), posterior interbody lumbar fusion (PLIF), transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF), anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF), oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) and extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF). These procedures, their indications, complications and results are described in this narrative review.
