Minimally Invasive Unilateral Pedicle Combined With Contralateral Translaminar Facet Joint Screw Fixation for Single-Segment Lumbar Degenerative Disease

UPS+TFS and BPS fixation during MIS-TLIF can achieve favorable clinical outcomes with no difference in long-term clinical efficacy. UPS+TFS demonstrates perioperative advantages such as reduced intraoperative blood loss, shorter operation time, reduced postoperative hospital stay, and less iatrogenic injury. Therefore, MIS-TLIF with UPS+TFS fixation is a reliable treatment for single-segment lumbar degenerative disease.
