Comparison of three different posterior fixation techniques in transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion for two-level lumbar degenerative diseases: At a mean follow up time of 46 months

Highlights • We are the first to investigate three fixation techniques in two-level lumbar cases. • UPS/UPSFS could achieve satisfactory mid-term clinical outcome comparable to BPS. • UPS instrumented TLIF should be prudently performed for two-level cases. • Cannulated screws should be replaced by s...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • We are the first to investigate three fixation techniques in two-level lumbar cases. • UPS/UPSFS could achieve satisfactory mid-term clinical outcome comparable to BPS. • UPS instrumented TLIF should be prudently performed for two-level cases. • Cannulated screws should be replaced by solid screws in UPSFS instrumented TLIF.
