Biportal endoscopic transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (BE-TLIF) is a minimally invasive surgical technique for treating degenerative spine conditions. It offers advantages such as reduced soft tissue trauma and lower infection rates, but certain technical aspects may be challenging. The current study aims to identify strategies enhance the rate in BE-TLIF by addressing these specific challenges.
We investigated the incidence and risk of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on dialysis Korea.
