Anterior lumbar discectomy and fusion: an effective technique in treating lumbar disc herniation—— a retrospective case study
ALDF provides an effective treatment strategy for patients with lumbar disc herniation. This procedure allows direct removal of protruding discs and calcified posterior longitudinal ligaments under the microscope, achieving the goal of direct decompression of the surgical segment. At the same time, it can reduce the damage to posterior muscles and skeletal structures caused by surgery. Comprehensive preoperative assessment and meticulous microscopic operation can help avoid complications such as nerve and vascular injuries.
