  2. The patients who encounter the pain by spondylolisthesis, or the pain that occurs from the slip forward of vertebrae. Although it can happen anywhere along the spine, it normally happens in the lower back. 

  3. The stenosis of the lateral recess or the lumbar canal is caused by the discogenic back pain, the unstable of the spine and the effect from past surgery which impacts the nerves. 

  4. The prolapse from ages which is possible to press on nerve roots can be caused by past surgery, the discogenic lower back pain, the unstable of the spine and the removing disc surgery which possibly to be the reason for the unstable. 




 

 

Preparation for TLIF

 

TLIF is related to surgery, it needs to be prepared thoroughly. The preparation will follow step by step.

 

  1.  The first thing that the patient needs to be concerned about is whether their health is ready for the surgery or not. A health examination is a must to be performed, including MRI or magnetic resonance imaging, to ensure the health condition of the patients.

  2. The second thing is the medication of the patient. TLIF procedure needs information on the patient’s allergy or medication history, especially aspirin and warfarin group.  The physician needs to gather the information for the TLIF procedure in the future and informed the patient to restrain 1 week before the surgery.

  3. Input the screw: The screws in the TLIF procedure are the method for stabilising the spinal that has been treated. The fixation from the screw will support the vertebra.

  4. Reaching the disc space: This step will allow the surgeon to access the injured disc with the least damage to the important nerve.

  5. Putting the bone graft: The next step for the TLIF procedure is to put the interbody spacer that contains the bone graft in the area where the disc has been removed. 

  6. Interbody spacer: After removing the disc and replacing it with the interbody spacer, the process of restoration will begin. This process will recreate the disc and spinal alignment as it should be located normally. 

  7. The fixation of the vertebra: After using the screws to fixate the vertebra, there will be an x-ray to scan the location of the screws and to ensure the fixation. 

  8. Stitching the wound: The last step is to close the wound by stitching. Although it is the last step, if they are careless, the wound might be infected and complicated.
