Background Lumbosacral instability is one of the causes of failed back surgery syndrome, and it is characterized by loss of disc height with translational and in many cases rotational instability in the sagittal plane. Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) is a modification of posterior lumbar interbody fusion that requires less retraction of the thecal sac and neural element. TLIF correct...
