Comparative efficacy and fusion outcomes of unilateral bi-portal endoscopic transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion versus minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion in treating single-segment degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis with
UBE-TLIF and MIS-TLIF can successfully treat single-segment DLS in the presence of LSS, achieving similar clinical and radiological outcomes with low complication rates. Although UBE-TLIF has certain advantages regarding perioperative outcomes (less blood loss and shorter hospital stay), MIS-TLIF is associated with shorter operative times and lower fluoroscopy exposure.
