ABSTRACT Background: One of the most frequent etiologies for spinal surgery is unstable lumbar spondylolisthesis (ULS). To decompress affected structures while maintaining or restoring stability through fusion, surgeons utilize a variety procedures. When paired with interbody posterior fusion applied, resulting in greater rates. The two popular techniques implementing are (PLIF) and transforaminal (TLIF). As result, these procedures have been assessed formally. Methodology: A retrospective...
