Abstract
Our findings suggest that anterior lumbar interbody fusion with percutaneous pedicle screws can achieve better clinical outcomes compared with TLIF for the treatment of IS. We believe the superior radiographic outcomes achieved through ALIFPS, namely a greater restoration of segmental lordosis and disc height, may have contributed to the improved clinical outcomes presented in the current study.
