OLIF provides an oblique lateral retroperitoneal approach to the lumbar intervertebral disc space while minimizing disruption to the psoas muscle, posterior musculature and neural structures. The procedure supports disc height restoration, sagittal alignment, indirect decompression and reliable lumbar interbody fusion.
L2–L5 and selected L5–S1 cases
The OLIF approach provides indirect decompression and interbody fusion through an oblique lateral corridor while preserving posterior spinal structures and limiting disruption to the surrounding muscles and soft tissues.
Provides access to the lumbar disc space through a retroperitoneal corridor without passing directly through the psoas muscle.
A large-footprint OLIF cage supports restoration of disc height, segmental alignment and foraminal dimensions.
Lordotic cage configurations help restore lumbar alignment and provide controlled anterior column reconstruction.
The OLIF cage can be combined with open posterior fixation, cement-augmented MIS fixation or percutaneous pedicle screws.
The OLIF interbody cage can be paired with multiple posterior stabilization systems according to the lumbar condition, surgical approach, bone quality and required fixation strength.
A rigid posterior fixation configuration combining an OLIF cage with the 6.0 mm pedicle screw-rod system for selected lumbar degenerative diseases, instability, deformity and spondylolisthesis cases.
A minimally invasive configuration combining the OLIF cage with MIS 5.5 cement-augmented fenestrated screws for selected patients requiring enhanced screw anchoring.
A percutaneous posterior fixation option designed to support OLIF cage stabilization while limiting posterior muscle and soft-tissue disruption.
The 6.0 mm pedicle screw-rod system provides rigid posterior stabilization for OLIF reconstruction, supporting cage stability, spinal alignment and multi-level lumbar fixation.
Fenestrated pedicle screw designed for controlled bone cement delivery in selected fixation procedures.
Matching instruments for minimally invasive screw placement and cement delivery workflow.
The MIS 5.5 cement-augmented fenestrated screw system supports minimally invasive posterior stabilization and may enhance screw anchoring in selected patients with reduced bone quality.
The 5.5 MIS Spinal System II combines percutaneous pedicle screw fixation with the OLIF cage to support lumbar reconstruction while reducing posterior muscle and soft-tissue disruption.
The following workflow presents a general OLIF surgical sequence. Final approach, implant selection and posterior fixation strategy should be determined by the surgeon according to the individual case.
Provides indirect decompression and interbody fusion through a minimally invasive oblique lateral approach while preserving posterior spinal structures.
The patient is positioned in the lateral decubitus position. A minimally invasive oblique lateral retroperitoneal approach is performed to access the target disc level.
The affected disc is removed, and the cartilaginous endplates are carefully prepared to create an appropriate fusion bed while maintaining endplate integrity.
An OLIF cage filled with the selected graft material is inserted into the disc space to restore disc height, support sagittal alignment and provide anterior column support.
An open or minimally invasive pedicle screw-rod system is applied according to the surgical plan to provide supplemental stability and maintain spinal alignment.
Fluoroscopic imaging is performed to confirm cage position, implant stability and spinal alignment before final wound closure.
