Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) spinal fusion 

Posterior Lumbar Fusion (PLF)
Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF)
Overview and Indications
Today modern state of the art technology provides minimally invasive surgery (MIS) spinal fusion procedure to perform only through tiny nick hole incisions and reduce recovery time. This technique is being used to perform posterior lumbar fusion (PLF) and transforaminal interbody fusion (TLF). Less tissue trauma, less pain, and less time is needed.
Posterior Lumbar Fusion (PLF) is the technique used to create fusion of two or more lumbar spines. Bone graft is grafted by the spines to fuse. Minimally invasive PLF is performed with metal screws and rods to provide instant stabilization while the graft fuses fast to yield high fusion rate.
MIS TLIF with PLF also may incorporate interbody fusion where the intervertebral disc is replaced with bone spacer of metal or plastic. Technique requires no retraction of the spinal nerves. MIS TLIF is done with facetectomy and laminectomy.
As a second phase procedure for the multiple level ALIF, this MIS PLF is highly preferred to avoid laminectomy.  
These procedures are indicated for spondylolisthesis, degenerative disc disease, and many other spinal problems.
Surgical Technique
Patients are positioned in prone on wilson frame or special OR table with adequate padding to avoid pressure injury. IV antibiotic is administered. For general anesthesia endotracheal tube is inserted for ventilation during surgery. Surgery site low back is prepped and draped with lumbar laminectomy drape. Using aseptic technique surgery team is gowned and gloved.
Surgeon made less than one-inch holes on both side of the required spinal levels. Cannula with sleeves is introduced through these holes. Pedicle screws and rods are implanted to fuse facet using C-arm.
When TLIF is done, laminectomy and facetectomy are performed followed by discectomy using kerrison rongeur, and pituitary rongeur. Microscope and C-arm is used for this procedure. Proper size spacer is implanted using a distractor instrument.
Irrigated wound with antibiotic water. Layers are sutured with two 2-0 vicryl pop offs. Skin is approximated with surgical glue and one sponge is used as dressing.
