Early experience with a rapid navigation system-assisted unilateral biportal endoscopic interbody fusion for lumbar spondylolisthesis

Compared with the non-navigation group, the ULIF procedure guided by the two-dimensional integrated navigation system-which is simple and effective-can provide better early relief of low back pain in patients with lumbar spondylolisthesis, while also shortening operative time, reducing the number of fluoroscopy instances, minimizing intraoperative blood loss, and decreasing postoperative drainage volume. This surgical approach demonstrates great potential for widespread clinical application.
