Author(s): Wenyuan Ding*
Purpose: To identify potential risk factors for cage subsidence after oblique Lumbar Interbody Fusion (OLIF) using
imaging and clinical date, and provide guidance for surgical planning in clinical practice.
Methods: Data of 107 patients who underwent OLIF were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with cage subsidence
distance >3 mm were included in the Cage Subsidence group (CS group), and the remaining patients were involved
in the Non Cage Subsidence group (NCS group). The characteristics (age, gender, Body Mass Index (BMI), main
diagnosis, comorbidities etc), vertebral body related variables (Disc Height (DH), endplate morphology, and Modic
changes) and surgery related variables (internal fixation, cage position, and endplate injury) were collected. Moreover,
the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score, and the Japanese Orthopedi.. View More»
